Quotes
-
Mr. Spock : The precise meaning of the word 'desert' is a waterless, barren wasteland. I fail to understand your romantic nostalgia for such a place.
Dr. McCoy : Doesn't surprise me, Mr. Spock. I can't imagine a mirage ever disturbing those mathematically perfect brainwaves of yours.
Mr. Spock : Thank you, Dr. McCoy.
-
Dr. McCoy : You should taste his food. Straw would taste better than his meat, and water a hundred times better than his brandy - nothing has any taste at all.
Mr. Spock : It may be unappetizing, doctor, but it is logical.
Dr. McCoy : Ah, there's that magic word again. Does your logic find this fascinating, Mr. Spock?
Mr. Spock : No, 'fascinating' is a word I use for the unexpected. In this case, I should think 'interesting' would suffice.

Mr. Spock : Captain.
Captain James T. Kirk : Mr. Spock. Still thinking about Trelane, is that it?
Mr. Spock : For the record, Captain, how do we describe him? Pure mentality? A force of intellect? Embodied energy? Super-being? He must be classified, sir.
Captain James T. Kirk : [thinks a moment] God of War, Mr. Spock.
Mr. Spock : Well, I hardly find that fitting.
Captain James T. Kirk : Then a small boy. And a very naughty one at that.
Mr. Spock : It WILL make a strange entry in the library banks.
Captain James T. Kirk : But then he was a very strange small boy.
-
Mr. Spock : [Reading from screen in bridge in his usual deadpan manner] "Hip-hip-hoorah?" And I believe it's pronounced "tallyho."
-
Captain James T. Kirk : How were our scanners able to penetrate that radiation field?
Mr. Spock : They didn't, Captain. Not clearly. We merely beamed up all life forms in a given area.
Dr. McCoy : Which means Trelane is not a life form as we know it or he'd be beaming through now.

Lt. Hikaru Sulu : Captain... we're about to warp.
Lt. Vincent DeSalle : Large body ahead!
Mr. Spock : [Spock studies his scanner] Collision course!
Captain James T. Kirk : Hard to port, Mr. Sulu!
[the Enterprise evades the planet]
Mr. Spock : That was the planet Gothos, Captain.
Captain James T. Kirk : Gothos? Mr. Sulu, have we been going in circles?
Lt. Hikaru Sulu : No, sir. All instruments show on course.
Mr. Spock : Gothos again, Captain!
Captain James T. Kirk : [the planet has reappeared again in front of the ship, which evades it again, barely] Hard over, Mr. Sulu.
Mr. Spock : Cat and mouse game...
Captain James T. Kirk : With us as the mouse...
Lt. Vincent DeSalle : There it is again, dead ahead!
Captain James T. Kirk : Ninety degrees to starboard, Mr. Sulu
Lt. Hikaru Sulu : Turning, Captain.
Lt. Hikaru Sulu : [the planet moves to block their course changes] ... but not veering off from it.
Captain James T. Kirk : Ninety degrees sub port, Mr. Sulu. Adjust...
Lt. Hikaru Sulu : Turn completed... and still accelerating toward the planet!
Mr. Spock : Or it toward us.
-
Spock : [Spock condemns Trelaine, an alien fop who has captured them] I object to you. I object to intellect without discipline. I object to power without constructive purpose.
-
Mr. Spock : If those peculiar signals are coming from Captain Kirk or Lieutenant Sulu, their rationality is in question.
