Dr. McCoy
: "Did you see the love light in
Spock's eyes? The right computer finally
came along." |
| |
|
|
|
Dr. McCoy:
"This isn't chicken soup. I may be just
a ship's doctor, but I make a Finagle's
Folly that's known from here to Orion. I
strongly prescribe it, Jim."
|
| |
|
|
|
Spock:
"It appears, Captain, we've been doing
what used to be called 'pursuing a wild
goose'." |
| |
|
|
|
Spock:
"Commodore Wesley is a dedicated
commander. I should regret serving
aboard the instrument of his death." |
| |
|
|
|
Spock:
"It would be most interesting to impress
your memory engrams on a computer,
Doctor. The resulting torrential flood
of illogic would be most entertaining."
|
| |
|
|
|
Spock:
"The most unfortunate lack in current
computer programming is that there is
nothing available to immediately replace
the starship surgeon." |
|
|
|
|
|
Kirk:
"There are certain things men must do to
remain men." |
|
|
|
|
|
Kirk:
"Only a fool would stand in the way of
progress." |
|
|
|
|
|
Spock:
"Computers make excellent and efficient
servants, but I have no wish to serve
under them. Captain, a starship also
runs on loyalty to one man. And nothing
can replace it or him." |
|
|
|
|
|
Kirk:
"Genius doesn't work on an assembly line
basis. You can't simply say, "Today I
will be brilliant." |
|
|
|
|
|
McCoy:
"If a man had a child who'd gone
anti-social, killed perhaps, he'd still
tend to protect that child." |
|
|
|
|
|
Kirk:
"What happened to the crewman?"
Richard Daystrom "The M-5
computer needed a new power source; the
crewman merely got in the way."
Kirk "And how long will it be
before we all "just get in the way?" |
|
|
|
|
|
McCoy:
"Compassion -- that's the one thing no
machine ever had. Maybe it's the one
thing that keeps men ahead of them." |
|
|
|
|
|
Richard
Daystrom: "When a child is taught
... it's programmed with simple
instructions -- and at some point, if
its mind develops properly, it exceeds
the sum of what it was taught, thinks
independently." |
|
|
|
|
|
Richard
Daystrom: "To kill is a breaking of
civil and moral laws we've lived by for
thousands of years." |
|
|
|
|
|
M-5:
"Murder is contrary to the laws of man
and God." |
|
|
|
|
|
McCoy:
"We're all sorry for the other guy when
he loses his job to a machine. But when
it comes to your job -- that's
different. And it always will be
different." |
|
|
|
|
|
Kirk:
"Do you know the one -- "All I ask is a
tall ship...and a star to steer her
by..." You could feel the wind at your
back, about you... the sounds of the sea
beneath you. And even if you take away
the wind and the water, it's still the
same. The ship is yours...you can feel
her...and the stars are still there." |
|
|
|
|
|
Commodore
Robert Wesley: "Our complements to
the M-5 unit ... and regards to Captain
Dunsel. Wesley out."
[Chekov winces; he and Sulu exchange a
look]
Dr. McCoy "Dunsel? Who the blazes
is Captain Dunsel? What does it mean,
Jim? ... Spock? ... What does it mean?"
Spock "Dunsel, doctor, is a term
used by midshipmen at Starfleet Academy.
It refers to a part which serves no
useful purpose." |
|
|
|
|
|
Richard
Daystrom: "Destroy it, Kirk? No!
We're invincible! Look what we've done!
Your mighty starships ... four toys to
be crushed as we choose |
|
|
|
|
|
Richard Daystrom:
"[growing increasingly agitated] Twenty
years of groping to prove the things I'd
done before were not accidents. Seminars
and lectures to rows of fools who
couldn't begin to understand my systems.
Colleagues ... colleagues laughing
behind my back at the boy wonder ...
then becoming famous building on my work
... BUILDING ON MY WORK!" |
