Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: Are you out of your Vulcan mind?
Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: We've got no Captain and no First Officer to replace him.
Kirk: Yeah, we do. [Sits in captain's chair.].
Scotty: I like this ship! It's exciting!
Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: Wait a minute, kid. How old are you?
Pavel Chekov: Seventeen, sir.
Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: Oh... Oh, good, he's seventeen.
Spock: Doctor... Mr. Chekov is correct.
James T. Kirk: Kirk to Enterprise. We're falling without a chute. Beam us up!
Transport Chief: I'm trying. I can't lock onto your signal.
James T. Kirk: Beam us up!
Transport Chief: You're moving too fast!
James T. Kirk: Beam us up!
Pavel Chekov: I can do zat! I can do zat.
Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: I'm a doctor, not a physicist!
Christopher Pike: Your father was captain of a starship for twelve minutes. He saved 800 lives, including yours. I dare you to do better. Enlist in Starfleet.
Spock: We are traveling at warp speed. How did you manage to beam aboard the ship?
Kirk: You're the genius. You figure it out.
Spock: As acting Captain of this vessel, I order you to answer the question.
Kirk: Well, I'm not telling, acting Captain. What? Did...oh, now that doesn't frustrate you, does it? My lack of cooperation? That doesn't...
[Spock turns to Scotty.]
Spock: Are you a member of Starfleet?
Scotty: Uh, yes. Can I get a towel?
Sarek: You once asked me why I married your mother. I married her because I loved her.
Nero: Fire everything!
Sarek: [to Spock.] You will always be a child of two worlds, and fully capable of deciding your own destiny. The question you face is: which path will you choose?
Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: Are you out of your Vulcan mind? Are you making a logical choice, sending Kirk away? Probably. But the right one? You know, back home we have a saying: "If you want to ride in the Kentucky Derby, you don't leave your prized stallion in the stable."
Spock: A curious metaphor, doctor, as a stallion must first be broken before it can reach its potential.
Leonard 'Bones' McCoy: Space is disease and danger wrapped in darkness and silence.
Spock Prime: Space... The final frontier.
Nero: James T. Kirk was a great man. But that was another life.
Kirk: Buckle up!
Christopher Pike: [to Kirk.] You've always had a hard time finding your place in this world, haven't you? Never knowing your true worth. You can settle for less in ordinary life, or do you feel like you were meant for something better? Something special.
Chosen answer: Spock's trying to stop a supernova, which is a hellishly big deal. Much better to take too much and end up not needing it, than take too little and end up failing.
