Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its 5-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before.

If I get my hands on the headquarters genius that assigned me a female yeoman...

I've already got a female to worry about. Her name is Enterprise.

KHAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNN!!!!!!!!!

It's a mystery. I don't like mysteries! They give me a bellyache, and I've got a beauty right now.

One of the advantages of being a captain, Doctor, is being able to ask for advice without necessarily having to take it.

I'm a soldier, not a diplomat. I can only tell the truth.

I was out saving the galaxy when your grandfather was in diapers.

Go climb a tree.

You didn't really think I was going to beat his head in, did you?

Well, there are better things for men and women to do.

We enjoy it.

I'm sorry I brought up the whole subject!

Would you mind being careful where you throw your rocks, Mr Spock?

Little ones, like you, they - Just go on the way you're going, you'll find out.

Come on, Spock; let's go mind the store.

I take it the odds are against us and the situation's grim. If Spock were here, he'd say that I was an irrational, illlogical human being for going on a mission like this... Sounds like fun!

The name of the game is called... Fizzbin. Each player gets 6 cards, except for the player on the dealer's right, who gets 7.

Scotty, you've just earned your pay for the week.

Mr Chekov, I think you've earned your pay for the week.

The word is no. I am therefore going anyway.

I have never questioned the orders or the intelligence of any representative of the Federation. Until now.

On the contrary, I think of this project as very important. It is you I take lightly.

My God, Bones! What have I done?

No, I'm from Iowa. I just work in outer space.

I can't believe I kissed you!

We'll make a human out of you yet!

Hello Alice! Welcome to Wonderland!

Risk is part of the game if you want to sit in that chair.

Everybody remember where we parked.

You say history considers me dead. Who am I to argue with history?

We are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honored dead. And yet it should be noted that in the midst of our sorrow, this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise of a new world; a world that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel this sacrifice a vain or empty one, and we will not debate his profound wisdom at these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this: of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most... human. No more blah, blah, blah! It isn't a bad life to have everyone in the universe at your beck and call, and you win all the arguments. Leave bigotry in your quarters; there's no room for it on the bridge. You'll learn something about men and women -- the way they're supposed to be. Caring for each other, being happy with each other, being good to each other. That's what we call love. You'll like that a lot. A room should reflect its occupant. You go slow, be gentle. It's no one-way street -- you know how you feel and that's all. It's how the girl feels too. Don't press. If the girl feels anything for you at all, you'll know. Love sometimes expresses itself in sacrifice. There are certain things men must do to remain men. Worlds may change, galaxies disintegrate, but a woman always remains a woman. Be pleasant no matter how much it hurts. Too much of anything, even love, isn't necessarily a good thing. Most people are afraid of being alone. No wants -- no needs? We weren't meant for that. None of us. Man stagnates if he has no ambition, no desire to be more than he is. You know the greatest danger facing us is ourselves, and irrational fear of the unknown. There is no such thing as the unknown. Only things temporarily hidden, temporarily not understood. It is the nature of our species to be free. Most of us are attracted by beauty and repelled by ugliness -- one of the last of our prejudices. What is man but that lofty spirit -- that sense of enterprise. We're the same. We share the same history, the same heritage, the same lives. We're tied together beyond any untying. Man or woman, it makes no difference. We're human. We couldn't escape from each other even if we wanted to - that's how you do it, Lieutenant! By remembering who and what you are! A bit of flesh and blood afloat in a universe without end. And the only thing that's truly yours is the rest of humanity. That's where your duty lies! It's the custom of my people to help one another when we're in trouble. Where I come from, size shape or color makes no difference. We prefer to help ourselves. We make mistakes, but we're human - and maybe that's the word that best explains us. We've each learned to be delighted with what we are. Let me help. A hundred years or so from now, I believe, a famous novelist will write a classic using that theme. He'll recommend those three words even over, I love you. We all are vulnerable, in one way or another. Our species can only survive if we have obstacles to overcome. You remove those obstacles. Without them to strengthen us, we will weaken and die. Risk is our business. We think of ourselves as the most powerful beings in the universe. It's unsettling to discover that we're wrong. We humans have a streak of barbarism in us -- appalling, but there nevertheless. Maybe we weren't meant for Paradise. Maybe we were meant to fight our way through. Struggle. Claw our way up, scratch for every inch of the way. Captain's Log, stardate 9529.1. This is the final cruise of the Starship Enterprise under my command. This ship and her history will shortly become the care of another crew. To them and their posterity will we commit our future. They will continue the voyages we have begun, and journey to all the undiscovered countries, boldly going where no man... where no one has gone before.
