Quotes
-
Dr. McCoy : There's a line from Shakespeare...
Captain Kirk : Yes, Bones, I remember it: "How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child."
Mr. Spock : Indeed, Captain.
-
Captain Kirk : This city is one gigantic riddle. Keep alert.
-
Kukulkan : You still are children to me, to be led and shown how to live.
Captain Kirk : But if children are made totally dependent on their teachers, they will never be anything but children.
Kukulkan : Enough! This is useless! Despite what I have shown you, you still cling to your disobedient ways! My dream is ending and all of you are to blame!
-
Captain Kirk : Intelligent life is too precious a thing to be led by the nose.
-
Captain Kirk : Mr. Walking Bear, do the legends say what happened to Kuklekan?
Walking Bear : No, sir. Only that he left and promised one day to return.
Captain Kirk : Then that space probe that approached Earth must have been his.
-
Dr. McCoy : Good heavens! This is a Capellan power-cat. No one's ever been able to keep one alive.
Captain Kirk : Why, Bones?
Dr. McCoy : They hate captivity. You try to put more than one hand on them and they throw off a charge of 2,000 volts.
Dr. McCoy : How did you ever capture it?
Kukulkan : It was an infant and easily controlled - as you were when I visited Earth.
