He didn't ask for what happened to him.
I felt for him, too.
I believe there's some hope for you after all, Mr. Spock.

Our spectro-readings showed no contamination, no unusual elements present.
At least none your tricorders could register.
Instruments register only those things they're designed to register. Space still contains infinite unknowns.
We're doing everything that's possible!
Bones, I want the impossible checked out too!

We're all a bunch of hypocrites. Sticking our noses into something that we've got no business. What are we doing out here, anyway?
Take it easy, Joe.
JTJoe Tormolen
Bring pain and trouble with us. Leave men and women stuck out on freezing planets until they die. What are we doing out here in space? Good? What good? We're polluting it! We're destroying it! We've got no business being out here! No business!
[Spock has just used the Vulcan nerve pinch on Sulu, who was rampaging about with a fencing sword]
Take D'Artagnan here to sickbay.
Love... you're better off without it, and I'm better off without mine. This vessel...I give... she takes. She won't permit me my life. I've got to live hers.
[over the intercom] Entering planet's outer atmosphere, sir.
Captain!
What is it?
He's turned the engines off. They're completely cold. It'll take 30 minutes to regenerate them.
[over the intercom] Entering planet's outer atmosphere, sir. Ship's outer skin is beginning to heat, Captain. Orbit plot shows we have about 8 minutes left.
Scotty!
I canna change the laws of physics! I've got to have 30 minutes!
We have here an unusual opportunity to appraise the human mind, or to examine, in Earth terms, the roles of good and evil in a man-- his negative side, which you call hostility, lust, violence, and his positive side, which Earth people express as compassion, love, tenderness.
Are you aware it's the captain's guts you're analyzing?
Yes, and what makes one man an exceptional leader? We see indications that it's his negative side which makes him strong, that his evil side, controlled and disciplined, is vital to his strength. Your negative side removed from you, the power of command begins to elude you.
Jim, you can't risk your life on a theory!
Being split in two halves is no theory with me, Doctor. I have a human half, you see, as well as an alien half, submerged, constantly at war with each other. Personal experience, Doctor. I survive it because my intelligence wins out over both, makes them live together. Your intelligence would enable you to survive as well.
[to Captain Kirk] You're the captain of this ship. You haven't the right to be vulnerable in the eyes of the crew. You can't afford the luxury of being anything less than perfect. If you do, they lose faith and you lose command.
[about Evil Kirk] I have to take him back inside myself. I can't survive without him. I don't want to take him back. He's like an animal. a thoughtless, brutal animal. And yet it's me. Me!
We all have our darker side. We need it; it's half of what we are. It's not really ugly, it's human.
Computer, go to sensor probe. Any unusual readings?
CComputer
No decipherable reading on females. However, unusual reading on male board members. Detecting high respiration patterns, perspiration rates up, heartbeat rapid, blood pressure higher than normal.
Uh, that's sufficient. Strike that from the record, Mr. Spock.
Men will always be men — no matter where they are.
You're a hard-nosed one, Captain.
And you're a liar. I think we both understand each other.
There's only one kind of woman...
Or man, for that matter.
You either believe in yourself or you don't.
