Quote of the Day

McCoy: Happy Birthday!

Kirk: I don’t know what to say.

McCoy: Well you could say thank you.

Kirk: Thank you.

McCoy: Damn it, Jim, what the hell’s the matter with you? Other people have birthdays. Why are we treating yours like a funeral?

Kirk: Bones, I don’t want to be lectured.

McCoy: What the hell do you want? This is not about age, and you know it. This is about you flying a goddamn computer console when you wanna be out there hopping galaxies.

Kirk: Spare me your notions of poetry, please. We all have our assigned duties.

McCoy: Bull. You’re hiding… hiding behind rules and regulations.

Kirk: Who am I hiding from?

McCoy: From yourself, Admiral!

Kirk: Don’t mince words, Bones, What do you really think?

McCoy: Jim, I’m your doctor and I’m your friend. Get back your command. Get it back before you turn into part of this collection. Before you really do grow old.

Quote of the Day

Kirk: Aren’t you dead? I assume you are loitering here to learn what efficiency rating I plan to give your cadets.

Spock: I am understandably curious.

Kirk: They destroyed the simulator room and you with it.

Spock: The Kobayashi Maru scenario frequently wreaks havoc with students and equipment. As I recall you took the test three times yourself. Your final solution was, shall we say, unique?

Kirk: It had the virtue of never having been tried. (holding up his birthday present) Oh, by the way, thank you for this.

Spock: I know of your fondness for antiques.

Kirk: ‘It was the best of times, it was the worst of times’… Message, Spock?

Spock: None of that I’m conscious of… except, of course, happy birthday, surely the best of times.
