The thread title is pretty self explanatory. Post your favorite Star Trek quotes and they can be from any of the Trek series. You can post anywhere from 1 to 5 in a reply. Just be sure to mention the character who said it and which series it was on. I'll start things off with a couple.

Dismissed...that's Starfleet for get out. (Captain Kathryn Janeway on Voyager)

I am not a merry man! (Lieutenant Worf on The Next Generation)

Ed.

A Captain Kirk quote:

Seven of Nine : Naomi Wildman, sub-unit of Ensign Samantha Wildman. State your intentions.

TUCKER: What did you think of the story?
T'POL: I thought the protagonist was interesting.
TUCKER: Doctor Frankenstein.
T'POL: No, his creation. From my perspective, this was the story of an individual persecuted by humans because he was different.
TUCKER: That's one way of looking at it.
T'POL: In many ways, the film seemed quite prophetic. The reaction of the villagers, for example. It was similar to the reception Vulcans received after landing on Earth.
ARCHER: I don't recall anyone greeting a Vulcan ambassador with torches and pitchforks.
T'POL: Nevertheless, many humans reacted with fear and anger.
ARCHER: They didn't know what to expect.
T'POL: I'm going to recommend that Ambassador Soval watch the film.
TUCKER: You're kidding.
T'POL: I believe it would help Vulcans who've recently arrived on Earth.
ARCHER: Maybe inviting her to movie night wasn't such a great idea.
T'POL: On the contrary. I'm looking forward to Bride of Frankenstein.

McCoy: "I should never have reconnected his mouth."

Kirk: Mr. Spock?
Spock: [unemotionally] My legs. They're broken.
Kirk: Let him go too, Charlie.
Charlie: Why?
Kirk: Because I'm telling you to. You need me to run this ship and I need him.

“With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably”. — Jean-Luc Picard
