The random Star Trek quotes thread...

You Klingon bastard, you killed my son!

"I knew it. I should never have reconnected his mouth."

"What's the word, Admiral?"
"The word?...is 'no.'

I am therefore going anyway."

Ahh, Worf. Eat any good books lately?

I wrote this on a big markerboard and left it propped up in my team's section of the building at work several months back. No one has seen fit to remove it so far. I wonder how long they'd leave it if I got laid off or died.

"I don't understand, Admiral. We were immobilized. Spock said it would be two days."
"Saavik, you of all people. Star Fleet General Order 37-B. When communications may be monitored..."
"...no unencoded messages will be sent. You lied!"
"I exaggerated."
"Hours instead of days. Now we have minutes instead of hours."
"They're inoperative below C Deck."
"What is working?"
"I've restored impulse engines and we have partial main power."
"That's it?"
"It was the best I could do in two hours."

"How many fingers am I holding up?"
"That's not very damned funny."

SPOCK: There is one possibility, but I cannot guarantee its success. We could attempt to find some humpback whales.
McCOY: You just said there aren't any, except on Earth of the past.
SPOCK: Yes Doctor, that's exactly what I said.
McCOY: Well, in that case... Now wait just a damn minute!

One of my favorite bits of dialogue ever:


McCOY: Come on Spock, it’s me, McCoy! You really have gone where no man has gone before. Can’t you tell me what it felt like?
SPOCK: It would be impossible to discuss the subject without a common frame of reference.
McCOY: You’re joking.
SPOCK: A joke is a story with a humorous climax.
McCOY: You mean I have to die to discuss your insights on death?
SPOCK: Forgive me, doctor, I am receiving a number of distress calls.
McCOY: I don’t doubt it!

T'Pao: "Live long, and prosper Schpouk."
Schp - er Spock: I shall do neither. I have killed my captain."

McCoy: "What did he eat? WHAT DID HE EAT?"
Spock: "He caught me off guard. I instinctively fed him the Vulcan Death Grits."

No wait...

"I . . . have had . . . enough of YOU!!!"

Am I the only one who saw anything but the movies?!

Well, there is my very favorite Trek quote of all time:

"My god, Bones, what have I done?"
"What you had to do. What you always do. Turned death into a fighting chance at life."

I always got a kick out of Gowron whenever he said "QUAAARKKKK!!".

Did that guy ever say Quark's name in a normal tone of voice?

"You blood will paint the way to the future!"

The DS9 when the station was about to be invaded by klingons - quark reveals to Odo that he keeps a phaser in a box for just such emergencies. He opens the box to find only a note from Rom saying that he borrowed the phaser for parts to fix something.

Quark: "I'll kill him!"
Odo: "... with what?"

Odo and Quark were really the only scenes involving Ferengi on that show. The two actors played well off of each other.

Well, that and Nog on the bridge of the Defiant.
"If I get lost, I'll just follow the ship in front of me."

"I'm Myles Edward O'Brien. I'm very much alive and I intend to stay that way."

... mocking the Jem'Hadar in To The Death

In what episode did Gowron interact with Quark?

Hirogen: It can defeat most hostile environments. I once tracked a silicon-based life-form through the neutronium mantle of a collapsed star.

Tom Paris: I once tracked a mouse through Jefferies tube 32.

"More useful observation Mr. Spock".

"We'll have to kill them..."

&

"Revenge captain?" "Why not."

&

"Peace: Through Superior Firepower".

"A blind man teaching an android to paint. That's got to be worth a page in someones book."

"SSSHHHHH!" "SSSSHHHHH!"

"Well what do you know -- I finally got the last word."

Q had some of the best.

"Con permiso, mon Capitaine! The hall is rented, the orchestra engaged... it's now time to see if you can dance."

"If you can't take a little bloody nose, maybe you ought to go back home and crawl under your bed. It's not safe out here. It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross. But it's not for the timid."

I don't trust men who smile too much.

Bones: That's right, and in this derivative, mixed with alcohol it merely deadens certain nerve inputs to the brain.
Scott: Oh, well, any decent blend of Scotch'll do that.
Bones: Oh? Well, one good slug of this, and you could hit a man with phaser stun, and he'd never feel it, or even know it.
Scott: Does it make a good mix with Scotch?
Bones: It should.
Scott: (grabs bottle and walks out) I'll let ye know!

McCoy: Dammit Jim! I'm a doctor, not a bricklayer!

(+ 100s of variants)

Julian: Myles, it's working. I've had a vision. I can see it so clearly.

Myles: What is it?

Julian: I'm going to kill Warf.

I'm going to kill you for your shitty spelling.
