Spock: There is an old Vulcan proverb... Only Nixon could go to China.

Kirk: They're animals!
Spock: Jim, there is an historic opportunity here.
Kirk: Don't believe them. Don't trust them.
Spock: They are dying.
Kirk: Let them die.

Kirk: Spock says this could be an historic occasion, and I'd like to believe him, but how on earth can history get past people like me?

Valeris: I do not understand this representation.
Spock: It is a depiction from ancient Earth mythology, the expulsion from Paradise.
Valeris: Why keep it in your quarters?
Spock: It is a reminder to me that all things end.

Spock: History is replete with turning points, Lieutenant. You must have faith.
Valeris: Faith?
Spock: That the universe will unfold as it should.
Valeris: But is that logical? Surely we must...
Spock: Logic, logic and logic. Logic is the beginning of wisdom, Valeris, not the end.

Gorkon: I offer a toast. The undiscovered country... the future.

Chekov: We do believe all planets have a sovereign claim to inalienable human rights.
Azetbur: Inalien? If you could only hear yourselves. Human rights. Why, the very name is racist.
General Chang: The Federation is no more than a Homo Sapiens Only club. Present company excepted, of course.

Gorkon: You don't trust me, do you? I don't blame you. If there is to be a brave new world, our generation is going to have the hardest time living in it.

Valeris: Four hundred years ago on the planet Earth, workers who felt their livelihood threatened by automation flung their wooden shoes called sabot into the machines to stop them. Hence the word sabotage...

Spock: An ancestor of mine maintained that if you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.

Warden: This is the gulag Rura Penthe. There is no stockade, no guard tower, no electronic frontier. Only a magnetic shield prevents beaming. Punishment means exile from prison to the surface. On the surface, nothing can survive. Work well and you will be treated well. Work badly and you will die.

Spock: Valeris, please inform Starfleet Command our warp drive is inoperative.
Valeris: A lie?
Spock: An error.

Kirk: You said it yourself. It was logical. Peace is worth a few personal risks. You're a great one for logic. I'm a great one for rushing in where angels fear to tread. We're both extremists. Reality is probably somewhere in between.

Spock: Is it possible that we two, you and I, have grown so old and so inflexible that we have outlived our usefulness?... Would that constitute a joke?

Kirk: Once again, we've saved civilization as we know it. And the good news is, they're not going to prosecute.

Kirk: Well, they don't arrest people for having feelings.
Chekov: And it's a good thing, too. If they did, we'd all have to turn ourselves in.

Spock: If I were human, I believe my response would be... Go to hell. If I were human.

Chekov: Course heading, Captain?
Kirk: Second star to the right, and straight on till morning.
