The glory of creation is in its infinite diversity.

The strength of a civilization is not measured by its ability to fight wars, but rather by its ability to prevent them.

We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes.

In the 24th century there will be no hunger, there will be no greed, and all the children will know how to read.

It is the struggle itself that is most important. We must strive to be more than we are. It does not matter that we will not reach our ultimate goal. The effort itself yields its own reward.

To be different is not necessarily to be ugly; to have a different idea is not necessarily to be wrong. The worst possible thing is for all of us to begin to look and talk and act and think alike.

It isn't all over; everything has not been invented; the human adventure is just beginning.

Star Trek says that it has not all happened, it has not all been discovered, that tomorrow can be as challenging and adventurous as any time man has ever lived.

For me science fiction is a way of thinking, a way of logic that bypasses a lot of nonsense. It allows people to look directly at important subjects.

The human race is a remarkable creature, one with great potential, and I hope that 'Star Trek' has helped to show us what we can be if we believe in ourselves and our abilities.

We are on a journey to keep an appointment with whatever we are.

God was never created the economy.Men found it after banished from Eden.

A ray of light illuminates any darkness.

My attitude toward men who mess around is simple: If you find 'em, kill 'em.

Sometimes I tend to worry too much and at the end of all the preoccupation nothing goes wrong.

Men talk of killing time while time quietly kills them.

To atone, I teach and try to set an example... I love spreading this stuff around. Just because it's trite doesn't mean it isn't right. In fact, I like to say, 'If it's trite, it's right.'

I was a savage for so many years of my life. There was some seed of determination in me that I was not conscious of. I was mostly consciously getting into trouble and drunk.

Not poppy, nor mandrake, Nor all the drowsy syrups of the world, Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep, Which thou owest yesterday.

Plot is the knowing of destination.

One of your greatest protections against making bad choices is to not put on any mask of anonymity.
