Quote of the Day
Kirk: Key in the ignition. Turn the ignition on. And nothing happens. Where’s the starter? There’s the starter. Yes!
Spock: Interesting.
Kirk: Oops! Gears.
Spock: Yes. Oh. I believe they had a device known as a clutch. Clutch, Captain. Perhaps one of those pedals on the floor.
Kirk: I kind of like this. I’m going to get one myself.
Spock: Captain, you are an excellent starship commander, but as a taxi driver you leave much to be desired.
Kirk: It was that bad?
Star Trek — Season 2: Episode 20 — “A Piece of the Action”
Quote of the Day
Spock: Doctor, if I were able to show emotion, your new infatuation with that term would begin to annoy me.
McCoy: What term? Logic? Medical men are trained in logic, Mister Spock.
Spock: Really, Doctor, I had no idea they were trained. Watching you, I assumed it was trial and error.

Quote of the Day
McCoy: What’s the matter, Spock?
Spock: There’s something disquieting about these creatures.
McCoy: Don’t tell me you’ve got a feeling.
Spock: Don’t be insulting, Doctor. They remind me of the lilies of the field. They toil not, neither do they spin. But they seem to eat a great deal. I see no practical use for them.
McCoy: Does everything have to have a practical use for you? They’re nice, soft, and furry, and they make a pleasant sound.
Spock: So would an ermine violin, but I see no advantage in having one.
McCoy: It’s a human characteristic to love little animals, especially if they’re attractive in some way.
Spock: Doctor, I am well aware of human characteristics. I am frequently inundated by them, but I’ve trained myself to put up with practically anything.
McCoy: Spock, I don’t know too much about these little tribbles yet, but there’s one thing that I have discovered.
Spock: What is that, Doctor?
McCoy: I like them… better than I like you.
Spock: Doctor?
McCoy: Yes?
Spock: They do have one redeeming characteristic.
McCoy: What’s that?
Spock: They do not talk too much. If you’ll excuse me, sir.
