Quotes
-
Capt. Kirk : They were humanitarians and statesmen, and they had a dream, a dream that became a reality and spread throughout the stars, a dream that made Mr. Spock and me brothers.
Garth : Mr. Spock, do you consider Capt. Kirk and yourself brothers?
Mr. Spock : Capt. Kirk speaks somewhat figuratively and with undue emotion; however, what he says is logical, and I do, in fact, agree with it.
-
Garth : [as Marta dances] Marvelous, isn't she, Captain?
Capt. Kirk : Yes, uh... incredible.
Garth : What is your reaction, Mr. Spock?
Mr. Spock : Well, I find it, um... mildly interesting and somewhat nostalgic, if I understand the use of that word.
Garth : Nostalgic?
Mr. Spock : Yes, it is somewhat reminiscent of the dances that Vulcan children do in nursery school.
-
Garth : Marta, my dear, won't you dance for our guests.
Captain James T. Kirk : That's very magnanimous of you.
Garth : Well, you'll find that I am magnanimous to friends and merciless to enemies. And, I want you, both of you, to be my friends.
Mr. Spock : On what precisely is our friendship to be based?
Garth : Well, upon the firmest of foundations, Mr. Spock: enlightened self interest.
-
Garth : [after fumbling around with a high explosive] How are your nerves, Kirk?
Captain James T. Kirk : All I can say, Garth: if it happens to me, it happens to you.
-
Captain James T. Kirk : Mr. Spock, erm, letting yourself be hit on the head - and I presume you LET yourself be hit on the head - is not exactly a method King Solomon would have approved.
Captain James T. Kirk : [flips open his communicator before Spock can answer] Mr. Scott, ready to beam up.

Garth : You do refuse to enter into the spirit of the thing, don't you, Captain? Perhaps you'd like a larger role in the ceremony. You could serve as human sacrifice, for example.
Capt. Kirk : No, I wouldn't enjoy that at all.
