PICARD: Did you read that book I gave you? (Wesley reacts, barely concealing a grimace as he recalls.)
WESLEY: Some of it.
PICARD: That's reassuring.
WESLEY: I just don't have much time.
PICARD: (re the book in his hand) There is no greater challenge than the study of philosophy. (Wesley glances over at Picard's book)
WESLEY: William James sure won't be on my Starfleet exams.
PICARD: The important things never will be. Anyone can be trained to deal with technology, and the mechanics of piloting a starship.
WESLEY: But Starfleet Academy--
PICARD: It takes more than just that. Open your mind to the past... to history, art, philosophy. And then... (re: the stars) ...this will mean something.
(Wesley considers this, almost embarrassed as he realizes Picard does truly care about him.)
Then: PICARD (continuing) Just consider James' wisdom: "Philosophy... is not a technical matter... it is our sense of what life honestly means... our individual way of feeling the total push and pressure of the cosmos."
(then) That's what I want for you.

STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION
"Samaritan Snare" #40272-143
Written by Robert L. McCullough ~ Jean-Luc Picard
Trek quotes by Jean-Luc Picard
You are free to leave, as well." Khalid resumed his trek toward his chamber.
Jalal cut it front of Khalid. "You look terrible." His eyes were bright, and his forehead was lined with worry. ~ Renee Ahdieh
Trek quotes by Renee Ahdieh
If life were a Star Trek episode - and how awesome would that be? - slipping would be the equivalent of beaming up, minus the cheesy sound effects and assistance from Scotty. ~ Bethany K. Lovell
Trek quotes by Bethany K. Lovell
I was always fascinated by science-fiction shows, shows like 'Star Trek' and 'Lost in Space.' ~ Michael P. Anderson
Trek quotes by Michael P. Anderson
Life, I now realize, is just one big trek across a minefield and you never know which step is going to blow you up. ~ Holly Goldberg Sloan
Trek quotes by Holly Goldberg Sloan
Star Wars was great at the beginning and crap at the end while Star Trek has always been interesting, and the difference is in the writing, and the thematic intentions. ~ William Monahan
Trek quotes by William Monahan
Of course, the young male demographic has always been the target demographic for 'Star Trek,' the men ageing fifteen to about twenty-five or thirty, a very tough market to appeal to. ~ Kate Mulgrew
Trek quotes by Kate Mulgrew
My approach to 'Star Trek' was, 'I know science fiction, and I know screen writing.' That was very arrogant of me, but you really need to be a little bit arrogant to think that what you have to say is good enough to justify the expense of hundreds of thousands - now millions of dollars - to make an episode of the TV show. ~ David Gerrold
Trek quotes by David Gerrold
Up until the time I was cast in 'Star Trek,' the roles were pretty shallow - thin, stereotyped, one-dimensional roles. I knew this character was a breakthrough role, certainly for me as an individual actor but also for the image of an Asian character: no accent, a member of the elite leadership team. ~ George Takei
Trek quotes by George Takei
Remember what we wrote? 'And just as I cannot imagine how I survived the past without you ... I cannot imagine a future without you.' Remember? Well, I'm the future without her, buddy boy, and I can tell you right now that it's not something you're going to relish. ~ Peter David
Trek quotes by Peter David
All the people in Star Trek will always be known as those characters. And what characters to have attached to your name in life! The show is such a phenomenon all over the world. ~ Nichelle Nichols
Trek quotes by Nichelle Nichols
The bigger the smile, the sharper the knife. ~ Star Trek Deep Space Nine Rules Of Aquision
Trek quotes by Star Trek Deep Space Nine Rules Of Aquision
I have always loved science fiction. One of my favorite shows is 'Star Trek.' I like the trips, where it drops my mind off, because they give you a premise and all of a sudden, you say, 'Oh!' and I'm fascinated by it. ~ Leslie Nielsen
Trek quotes by Leslie Nielsen
I can't think straight around her. I think love
is turning me into a Disney character. Damn it. I always
thought I'd be someone interesting out of a Star Trek
episode, but I kind of want to break into a song a little.
Just a little. ~ Lexi Blake
Trek quotes by Lexi Blake
Atticus:"Damn it, Jim, I'm a Druid not a Physicist! ~ Kevin Hearne
Trek quotes by Kevin Hearne
If there was one thing I learned from all my research, it was that the majority of the early pioneers didn't dwell on the hard times; they indeed related every aspect of their lives to their relationship with God, specifically in regards to this disastrous journey. They thanked Him for their lives and the fact that they made it through. Most didn't blame leaders or those around them. They learned to accept their plight and move forward with faith. ~ Mike Ericksen
Trek quotes by Mike Ericksen
It was a strange trek - the sullen leading the apathetic, followed by the confused, all tailed by the inveterately amused. ~ David Brin
Trek quotes by David Brin
Amelia nodded her head, "That makes perfect sense."
"No is doesn't," jeered Otto.
"Yes, it does," sighed Amelia. "Don't you ever remember anything important?"
"Of course, I remember how many Star Trek seasons there were and when the Three Stooges were born! ~ Monet Polny
Trek quotes by Monet Polny
If being human is not simply a matter of being born flesh and blood, if it's simply a way of thinking, acting, and feeling, then I am hopeful that one day I will discover my own humanity. Until then, I will continue learning, changing, growing, and trying to become more than what I am. ~ Lieutenant Commander Data
Trek quotes by Lieutenant Commander Data
Star Trek wouldn't die. There were a whole lot of young people who were touched by the thought process of science fiction. If you watched a cop show, there wasn't anything that was going to stimulate your mind. ~ Gary Lockwood
Trek quotes by Gary Lockwood
We're all in outer space, Jerry, and we're in color. NBC claims to be the first full- color network, so let's prove it for them. When you light the sets, throw wild colors in - magenta, red, green, any color you can find - especially behind the actors when they're in a close shot. Be dramatic. In fact, go overboard. Backlight the women and make them more beautiful. Take some chances. No one can tell you that's not the way the future will look. ~ Robert H. Justman
Trek quotes by Robert H. Justman
To the brave crew and passengers of the Kobayshi Maru ... sucks to be you. ~ Peter David
Trek quotes by Peter David
The bridge of stars?" Janeway asked.
"Uh-huh," Glenn said, nodding. "I can't remember the whole story. Two galaxies were one but over time, the natural expansion of the universe separated them. Still, they couldn't bear to be torn apart, so each of them sacrificed a few of their stars to leave a bridge between them so that no matter how far apart they drifted, they could never truly be separated."
"That's beautiful," Chakotay said, glancing toward Janeway with a gentle smile. ~ Kirsten Beyer
Trek quotes by Kirsten Beyer
tattooed on Kirsten's arm, "Survival is insufficient," is from Star Trek: Voyager, episode 122, which aired for the first time in September 1999 and was written by Ronald D. Moore. ~ Emily St. John Mandel
Trek quotes by Emily St. John Mandel
It cannot be said often enough that science fiction as a genre is incredibly educational - and I'm speaking the written science fiction, not 'Star Trek.' Science fiction writers tend to fill their books if they're clever with little bits of interesting stuff and real stuff. ~ Terry Pratchett
Trek quotes by Terry Pratchett
I watched a lot of series. I didn't watch a lot of movies on TV. But I watched Gilligan's Island and Star Trek and all that stuff. ~ Geena Davis
Trek quotes by Geena Davis
These really are our days, and we can prevail and overcome, even in the midst of trends that are very disturbing. If we are faithful the day will come when those deserving pioneers and ancestors, whom we rightly praise for having overcome the adversities in the wilderness trek, will praise today's faithful for having made their way successfully through a desert of despair and for having passed through a cultural wilderness, while still keeping the faith. ~ Neal A. Maxwell
Trek quotes by Neal A. Maxwell
So what is this journey called life? A wander in the park? A trek up a steep mountain? No! It's a trek along a road with many bends and craggy places; surprises that thrill; challenges that dismay. But best of all, we never walk alone. Our Guide goes before us and is even beside us every step of the way. Let Him lead. ~ Anusha Atukorala
Trek quotes by Anusha Atukorala
This was a conversation I had with a so-called-fellow-trekkie the other day:
'So Picard or Kirk?' I asked.
'What?'
'Star Trek ... '
'Oh, Kirk.'
'Why?'
'I like the name better.'
I could have slammed his head against the table. ~ Melanie Kay Taylor
Trek quotes by Melanie Kay Taylor
'Star Trek' is a 'Wagon Train' concept - built around characters who travel to worlds 'similar' to our own, and meet the action-adventure-drama which become our stories. Their transportation is the cruiser 'S.S. Yorktown,' performing a well-defined and long-range Exploration-Science-Security mission which helps create our format. ~ Gene Roddenberry
Trek quotes by Gene Roddenberry
A ship doesn't look quite the same from inside, does it? A wise sailor,' Robert said, fanning his arms, 'will one time stand upon the shore and watch his ship sail by, that he shall from then on appreciate not being left behind.' He grinned and added, 'Eh?'

George gave him a little grimace. 'Who's that? Melville? Or C.S. Forrester?'

It's me!' Robert complained. "Can't I be profound now and again?'

Hell, no.'

Why not?'

Because you're still alive. Gotta be dead to be profound.'

You're unchivalrous, George. ~ Diane Carey
Trek quotes by Diane Carey
When governments murder those who speak the truth, it is time to get new governments. ~ Diane Duane
Trek quotes by Diane Duane
I'm immensely fortunate to have been involved in the 'Star Trek' universe. It has been a lot of fun, and I'm extremely grateful for the opportunity to have been part of something so important to so many people. ~ Alice Krige
Trek quotes by Alice Krige
The human race is a remarkable creature, one with great potential, and I hope that 'Star Trek' has helped to show us what we can be if we believe in ourselves and our abilities. ~ Gene Roddenberry
Trek quotes by Gene Roddenberry
I started by looking everything up in a Star Trek dictionary so I knew what I was talking about, but you can't do that because they talk in circles, and half of it doesn't make sense, so you'll just end up driving yourself more insane. ~ Jeri Ryan
Trek quotes by Jeri Ryan
I'm enormously proud of the fact that Star Trek has really not just sparked an interest, but encouraged, a few generations of people to go into the sciences. ~ LeVar Burton
Trek quotes by LeVar Burton
And I enjoyed the celebrity and the creativity that was involved in Star Trek. ~ William Shatner
Trek quotes by William Shatner
I have always been more comfortable with daredevil acts than with the everyday nuances of life. Let me jump out of a plane, speak in front of a roomful of strangers, even trek across Siberia. ~ Sarah Kay
Trek quotes by Sarah Kay
When I was nine years old, Star Trek came on, I looked at it and I went screaming through the house, 'Come here, mum, everybody, come quick, come quick, there's a black lady on television and she ain't no maid!' I knew right then and there I could be anything I wanted to be. ~ Whoopi Goldberg
Trek quotes by Whoopi Goldberg
One of my favorite things about 'Star Trek' wasn't just the overt banter but the humor in that show about the relationships between the main characters and their reactions to the situations they would face; there was a lot of comedy in that show without ever breaking its reality. ~ J.J. Abrams
Trek quotes by J.J. Abrams
Im a ridiculous sci-fi fan. In fact, I admit it freely; my manager is horrified. I just recently bought seasons two through five of Star Trek: The Next Generation on DVD. And Ive watched all the episodes, half on the plane and a few of them as I was going to sleep last night. Theres something about sci-fi thats comforting. ~ Emma Caulfield
Trek quotes by Emma Caulfield
It sure if terrific to be in the back seat of a car full of all the people in your affinity group, and as you zip down the center of the road the radio is going boodeley-boodeley-boo in some bluegrass heart song to open space, and, whoopee, you're hugging all the committed girls who love you just as the boys love you but even more so, maybe, because Bug never forgot that a Swiss army knife, for instance, does everything well and nothing excellently; and to do something excellently a good navy surplus kelp-slitting blade is far superior to a thousand sawtoothed frogman's specials; and a gun is worth a thousand knives; and a good friend is worth a thousand guns; and ten minutes' bored talk about the weather with any girl is worth a thousand friends at your back on the Great Trek of 1836, at least at that time in his life, perhaps because until he joined the affinity group none of his friends had ever been girls; but now everyone was his friend, especially the girls (but he only thought that; he didn't say it, didn't want anyone to claim that he was a sexist). ~ William T. Vollmann
Trek quotes by William T. Vollmann
I like to think of myself as the Rutger Hauer of this show Star Trek: The Next Generation. But then I like to think of myself as Rutger Hauer in real life: strikingly handsome, irresistible to women, an intergalactic enigma. ~ Brent Spiner
Trek quotes by Brent Spiner
I read a lot of fantasy and grew up on 'Star Wars' and 'Star Trek.' I loved going to Middle Earth. 'Dungeons & Dragons' was a huge influence. ~ Tony DiTerlizzi
Trek quotes by Tony DiTerlizzi
I did the Kilimanjaro climb a few years ago, then the six-day trek to Machu Picchu in Peru so this bike ride to raise money for Great Ormond Street seemed like the next big challenge. ~ Denise Van Outen
Trek quotes by Denise Van Outen
As a kid, 'Star Wars' was much more my thing than 'Star Trek' was. ~ J.J. Abrams
Trek quotes by J.J. Abrams
The organization that it takes to make a movie like 'Star Trek' is amazing, intimidating and fascinating. ~ Heather Langenkamp
Trek quotes by Heather Langenkamp
I've appeared in those kind of films and have great fun doing it, and I'm always up for a challenge. I think with things like Mission: Impossible and Star Trek, those things are such an ensemble, it's not like I'm Ethan Hunt. I'm Benji. I'm the guy that does the computer business. I know my place. ~ Simon Pegg
Trek quotes by Simon Pegg
Romulan or Vulcan?' the ushers asked each guest.
Marion, who had been poised to say 'friends of the bride' had responded to the question with an open-mouthed stare, and Jay Omega answered, 'Klingon! which got them seats in the back row of the Romulan side. ~ Sharyn McCrumb
Trek quotes by Sharyn McCrumb
I've met actors where you think, if only you could just clean up your act and get it together, people would want to work with you. Some people are so difficult, it's just not worth working with them. ~ Patrick Stewart
Trek quotes by Patrick Stewart
I had come to the point when I realized it was unlikely that my film career was going to move beyond a certain level of role. And I was - because I had graphic instances of it - handicapped by the success of Star Trek. A director would say, 'I don't want Jean-Luc Picard in my movie' - and this was compounded by X-Men as well. ~ Patrick Stewart
Trek quotes by Patrick Stewart
Those who want war will find causes, no matter how many of them you take away. ~ Diane Duane
Trek quotes by Diane Duane
In love, all questions are answered. ~ Djana Fahryeva
Trek quotes by Djana Fahryeva
I'm not real impressed with the Star Trek weaponry, I gotta be honest. ~ Jeri Ryan
Trek quotes by Jeri Ryan
I had never seen much of Star Trek, or any other science fiction, before I was cast. But Seven's wonderful. ~ Jeri Ryan
Trek quotes by Jeri Ryan
Jax gave him a look, and he nodded, silently agreeing he wouldn't do anything stupid. Like kiss her. Or go to her house to watch Star Trek outtakes. ~ Trinity Faegen
Trek quotes by Trinity Faegen
Man, do you ever feel it's just the hope of things we live for?' I asked. 'I mean, it's like the things themselves are just a big disappointment, you know? We like the searching, the dreaming. It's sort oflike the way previews for a movie are better than the film itself sometimes. What was that line I heard from Spock on Star Trek? He says 'Having is not as good as wanting' or something like that. Like, reality is the ultimate letdown. ~ Augustus Cileone
Trek quotes by Augustus Cileone
The game isn't big enough unless it scares you a little. Cmdr. William Riker ~ Star Trek: The Next Generation Episode Guide Team
Trek quotes by Star Trek: The Next Generation Episode Guide Team
Well, the whole history of Star Trek is the market demand. ~ George Takei
Trek quotes by George Takei
I like to razz the Trekkies a little bit. Who doesn't? It's trainspotting, isn't it? But they are very well-meaning, actually. I've done a couple of Star Trek conventions, and they've only been really welcoming. ~ Malcolm McDowell
Trek quotes by Malcolm McDowell
I've watched other directors as an actor and I picked up little things here and there about cameras, [but] I wouldn't consider myself the guy you'd want to hire to do Star Trek. ~ Billy Bob Thornton
Trek quotes by Billy Bob Thornton
I'm proud of my relationship with 'Star Trek'! 'Star Trek' is a show that I am philosophically compatible with. ~ George Takei
Trek quotes by George Takei
I'm not so interested any more in how a great deal of science fiction goes. It goes into things like Star Wars and Star Trek which all go excellent in their own way. ~ Robert Sheckley
Trek quotes by Robert Sheckley
In my proudest moments, I think I had a real hand in the creative force of making 'Star Trek.' But most of the time, I don't think about it. ~ William Shatner
Trek quotes by William Shatner
I just feel so flattered, because the cosplayers really make sure every detail is there. I don't think I've ever cosplayed a character before, but if I were to, I'd probably go as a Klingon from 'Star Trek.' ~ Karen Gillan
Trek quotes by Karen Gillan
'Star Trek' is about a bunch of disparate people and what they're capable of when they work together. ~ Chris Pine
Trek quotes by Chris Pine
As a card-carrying space nerd and NASA's chief scientist, I love space movies, from 'Star Trek' to 'Star Wars' to my all-time favorite - 'The Dish', an Australian comedy that celebrates that first moment when Neil Armstrong stepped down onto the surface of our moon. ~ Ellen Stofan
Trek quotes by Ellen Stofan
Is the groom going to go where no man has gone before? ~ Sharyn McCrumb
Trek quotes by Sharyn McCrumb
The most important part of seeing Darla every night wasn't the fooling around. It was the few minutes we talked while holding each other, the feeling of security I got with her, the feeling of being understood and loved. Before the eruption, I wouldn't have believed that I could cuddle up every night with the girl who starred in my dreams and not be totally preoccupied with sex. But the trek across Iowa had changed something. I wanted, needed to see her so badly that it woke me up at night. But making out was incidental to my need – nice when it happened, but secondary to the simple pleasure of sleeping beside her. ~ Mike Mullin
Trek quotes by Mike Mullin
In our first season we had a 22 rating. Today Seinfeld, a hit show, gets a 15. Lost in Space actually had a bigger audience than Star Trek got at that time. ~ Mark Goddard
Trek quotes by Mark Goddard
As we divest ourselves of once familiar physical objects - digitize and dematerialize - we approach a 'Star Trek' future in which everything can be accessed from the fourth dimension with a few clicks or terse audibles. ~ James Wolcott
Trek quotes by James Wolcott
Jack, I'm going to buy your whole team autographed Star Trek memorabilia." "I prefer Star Wars, ~ Andy Weir
Trek quotes by Andy Weir
We had some very distinguished fans: I know one chancellor of a major university who used to schedule his meetings around Star Trek. We were thrilled to discover that Frank Sinatra was a big fan. ~ Patrick Stewart
Trek quotes by Patrick Stewart
I grew up addicted to 'Star Trek' and 'Mission: Impossible.' Now I switch between 'South Park' and 'C-Span.' ~ Lawrence Blume
Trek quotes by Lawrence Blume
You can use logic to justify just about anything, that's its power and it's flaw. ~ Captain Katherine Janeway
Trek quotes by Captain Katherine Janeway
The doctors told me I'd be fine if I play only golf and tennis doubles for the rest of my life. But I dive. I dogsled. I trek. I guess I'll have surgery. ~ Lauren Hutton
Trek quotes by Lauren Hutton
Right, right, I get it, you're a doctor, not a hacker. ~ Rachel Bach
Trek quotes by Rachel Bach
I'm not a massive 'Star Trek' fan. ~ Margot Robbie
Trek quotes by Margot Robbie
You cannot explain away a wantonly immoral act because you think that it is connected to some higher purpose. ~ Jean-Luc Picard
Trek quotes by Jean-Luc Picard
I don't feel in any way obligated to remain current with the culture. I feel no social obligation whatsoever. I trust my morality in the narrow path I trek through the world as I work. ~ James Ellroy
Trek quotes by James Ellroy
The Shepherd knows our path. And He also knows His sheep and what it takes to prepare us for the journey. And so the Shepherd makes us lie down to fortify us for the trek. He makes certain we won't tire, that we're not at risk because of weariness, that we're invigorated from our pasture-time for any strenuous climb. With His eye on tomorrow, He leads on today. ~ Elizabeth George
Trek quotes by Elizabeth George
Druid log July 15: Dark elves are not only quick and efficient killers, but creative and pyrotechnically inclined ones. ~ Kevin Hearne
Trek quotes by Kevin Hearne
I don't think you ever leave Star Trek for good. ~ Jonathan Frakes
Trek quotes by Jonathan Frakes
Even a small village in the middle of Africa with a 3D printer will have access to any good it can download. The world of the 'Star Trek' replicator is not far away. ~ Peter Diamandis
Trek quotes by Peter Diamandis
We have joined the trek
of desert women, humped over
from carrying our own oases
in the claypots of our lives,
gathering broken shards we find
in memory of those who went
ahead of us, alone. ~ Marjorie M. Evasco
Trek quotes by Marjorie M. Evasco
I was like, 'Whoa, I'm auditioning for 'Hunger Games?' That's like my dream come true. That's like a Trekkie auditioning for 'Star Trek.' ~ Leven Rambin
Trek quotes by Leven Rambin
It is important to the typical 'Star Trek' fan that there is a tomorrow. They pretty much share the 'Star Trek' philosophies about life: the fact that it is wrong to interfere in the evolvement of other peoples, that to be different is not necessarily to be wrong or ugly. ~ Gene Roddenberry
Trek quotes by Gene Roddenberry
You called the guy you're supposed to rescue a nerd, and you just referenced Star Trek. You don't find that a bit nerdy? ~ A.J. Wiliams
Trek quotes by A.J. Wiliams
This is space. It's sometimes called the final frontier.
(Except that of course you can't have a final frontier, because there'd be nothing for it to be a frontier to, but as frontiers go, it's pretty penultimate ... ) ~ Terry Pratchett
Trek quotes by Terry Pratchett
You know, there are some words I've known since I was a schoolboy: ' With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.' Those words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie as wisdom and warning. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on we're all damaged. I fear that today... ~ Jeri Taylor
Trek quotes by Jeri Taylor
'Star Trek' was always a little bit closed emotionally. I never connected to the characters. ~ J.J. Abrams
Trek quotes by J.J. Abrams
So the captain, the first officer and the ship's doctor and sometimes the engineer all beam down to a planet. Together."
"The entire complement of the senior officers?"
Billy nodded
"And who has the command of the ship?"
"I don't know. Junior officers I guess."
"If they worked for me I would have them court-martialed. That sounds like a dereliction of duty."
"I know. I know. I always thought it odd myself. But that's not the point."
"What is the point?"
"They're usually accompanied by a guy in the red shirt. Always a crew member you've never seen before. And as soon as you see the shirt, you know he's going to die. ~ Michael Scott
Trek quotes by Michael Scott
Over time, researchers who look at the adolescent brain have therefore alighted on a variety of metaphors and analogies to describe their excesses. Casey prefers Star Trek: "Teenagers are more Kirk than Spock." Steinberg likens teenagers to cars with powerful accelerators and weak brakes. "And then parents are going to get into tussles with their teenagers," says Steinberg, "because they're going to try to be the brakes. ~ Jennifer Senior
Trek quotes by Jennifer Senior
To boldly go where no man has gone before" says the iconic Captain's Oath in the Star Trek series. Humanity seeks to live adventures, either by conquering mountains or the seas, or by watching war movies, space adventures, fantasies and thrillers. But often the greatest adventure of them all is to negotiate through a lifetime. ~ Ritu Lalit
Trek quotes by Ritu Lalit
Battlefields are unpredictable places – even under a flag of truce. ~ Star Trek Enterprise
Trek quotes by Star Trek Enterprise
It seemed that out of the battle I escaped
Down some profound dull tunnel, long since scooped
Through granites which Titanic wars had groined.
Yet also there encumbered sleepers groaned,
Too fast in thought or death to be bestirred.
Then, as I probed them, one sprang up, and stared
With piteous recognition in fixed eyes,
Lifting distressful hands as if to bless.
And by his smile, I knew that sullen hall,
By his dead smile, I knew we stood in Hell.
With a thousand pains[3]that vision's face was grained;
Yet no blood reached there from the upper ground,
And no guns thumped, or down the flues made moan.
"Strange, friend," I said, "Here is no cause to mourn."
"None," said the other, "Save the undone years,
The hopelessness. Whatever hope is yours,
Was my life also; I went hunting wild
After the wildest beauty in the world,
Which lies not calm in eyes, or braided hair,
But mocks the steady running of the hour,
And if it grieves, grieves richlier than here.
For by my glee might many men have laughed,
And of my weeping something had been left,
Which must die now. I mean the truth untold,
The pity of war, the pity war distilled.
Now men will go content with what we spoiled.
Or, discontent, boil bloody, and be spilled.
They will be swift with swiftness of the tigress,
None will break ranks, though nations trek from prog ~ Wilfred Owen
Trek quotes by Wilfred Owen
Star Trek speaks to some basic human needs: that there is a tomorrow - it's not all going to be over with a big flash and a bomb; that the human race is improving; that we have things to be proud of as humans. No, ancient astronauts did not build the pyramids - human beings built them, because they're clever and they work hard. And Star Trek is about those things. ~ Gene Roddenberry
Trek quotes by Gene Roddenberry
I started watching 'Star Trek' as a kid. ~ Henry Ian Cusick
Trek quotes by Henry Ian Cusick
There was much to put out of his mind. Why was it difficult to forget Chekov's astonished delight which greeted him at the command airlock when he boarded. And on the bridge - Kirk! The mere name made Spock groan inwardly as he remembered what it had cost him to turn away from that welcome. T'hy'la! ~ Gene Roddenberry
Trek quotes by Gene Roddenberry
Above the stage was a glass-floored second stage, which allowed customers to look up and watch another girl dancing overhead. This multidimensional display of poontang reminded me of the 3-D chessboard on Star Trek, which in turn reminded me that I was a huge nerd. ~ Diablo Cody
Trek quotes by Diablo Cody
