Favorite Line From-Star Trek-TOS?

You may discover in time that, having is not so much a pleasant a thing as wanting- Spock [best one verse dialog in series].

 

The sickest burn in the galaxy, too.

 

I want this on my tombstone.

 

"Take D'Artagnon here to sickbay." - Spock

 

I would have thought this would be etched on your tombstone :
" I was an oil man "

 

"For the world is hollow and I have touched the sky."

 

From Balance of Terror

Kirk: Captain. Standing by to beam your survivors aboard our ship. Prepare to abandon your vessel.
Romulan Commander: No. No, that is not our way. I regret that we meet in this way. You and I are of a kind. In a different reality, I could have called you friend.
Kirk: What purpose will it serve to die?
Romulan Commander: We are creatures of duty, Captain. I have lived my life by it. Just one more duty to perform.

 

"Fascinating!"

 

Korax: "...I didn't mean to say that the Enterprise should be hauling garbage...
I meant to say that it should be hauled away AS garbage."

 

Even after all these years, that scene and the one where Kirk asks for explanation from Scotty make me laugh out loud.

The expression on Kirk's face is priceless when he finds out what caused fight to break out!

 

And I cannot escape the quote from DS9 Trials And Tribblations
Worf- "They are Klingons.... We don't TALK about it!"

 

Kirk trying to anger Spock”Your father was a computer,your mother an encyclopedia!”



Crack your knuckles,jump for joy,we’re going to raise some hell with Dr.McCoy!

 

A lot of my favorite lines are McCoy's sarcastic comebacks to something Spock has said.

Tomorrow Is Yesterday
Spock: I made an error in my computations.
McCoy: Oh? This could be a historic occasion.

Your mother was a hamster and your father stank of elderberries!

 

"May I introduce She who is my wife" - Sarek

 

“What Little Girls are Made of”
Lurch* “That was the equation! Existence! Survival must cancel out programming”



* alright, the character is named Ruk. But I always refer to any character Ted Cassidy played as Lurch.

 

From the space hippies episode


..........."we reach"

....Herbert........Herbert..........Herbert

Who new Spock could rip with the Vulcan lute

 

"No laughing!"
-Charlie X

 

"Your logic was impeccable, captain. We are in grave danger." - Spock

 

"Poor girl. I will help her....now" <boom>
-Lord Garth

 

Error! Error! Examine!

 

"I'll let ya know": Mr. Scott on whether Saurian brandy was a good mix with scotch.

 

From Errand Of Mercy

Captain James T. Kirk : What would you say the odds are on our getting out of here?

Mr. Spock : Difficult to be precise, Captain. I should say, approximately 7,824.7 to 1.

Captain James T. Kirk : Difficult to be precise? 7,824 to 1?

Mr. Spock : 7,824.7 to 1.

Captain James T. Kirk : That's a pretty close approximation.

Mr. Spock : I endeavor to be accurate.

Captain James T. Kirk : You do quite well.

 

I just can't resist because this episode/line is so bad it's greatness will live forever...
