Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
Thursdays on Paramount+Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 1 Quotes
Causality is complex.
Admiral Pike
Admiral Pike: This is serious. This is end of the world stuff. Now, I know that you would never put your own fate before the fate of the galaxy. And that's how I convinced the Klingons to let me show you instead.
Captain Pike: Instead... of what?
Admiral Pike: You know the Klingons. Nothing they wouldn't rather solve with a bat'leth.
Sam Kirk: Jim was always at the top of his class. He's smart and highly skilled, obviously. But he's not above relying on charm or even luck.
Pike: Sound like a wild card?
Sam Kirk: A whole deck of them.
M'Benga: I vote against war.
Ortegas: So do I. I just think that means killing Romulans.
Typically, no one can know the future in the moment. One can only follow one's instincts and hope the truth will present itself.
Spock
Romulan Commander: You don't remember a time without war, but I do. Who wins an endless war with the Federation?
Subcommander: We will, Commander.
Romulan Commander: An endless war, by definition, can never be won.
Spock: These ducts in the mouth likely expel venom.
Hemmer: Yes, and it burns quite tremendously.
Spock: No doubt a toxin meant to blind its victims.
Hemmer: I was not the best target.
Chapel: Tell me what's going on.
Spock: I can't control it. I have let something out. Rage. Pain.
Chapel: It's your emotions.
Spock: My mind has gone weak.
Chapel: No, it doesn't make you weak. Spock, it makes you human.
Pike: What's he saying?
La'an: The universal translator isn't processing it. Uhura, do something.
Uhura: That's not how linguistics works!
Duke: The anomalies. Is that what's killing our coms?
Spock: Negative, ensign. It is the ionic interference that prevents long-range communication.
Kirk: Drink. You owe him a drink, Spock.
Chapel: Duke's a lieutenant now. Call him an ensign, you gotta buy him a drink. Starfleet tradition.
Spock: Another human drinking game. Does their number have no limit?
Kirk: Nope.
Chapel: I understand that Vulcans have a strong, hidden primal nature. I bet you're a tempest when you're angry.
Spock: It is true that without proper mindfulness Vulcan emotion is dangerous. We use logic to not succumb to anger.
Chapel: It's good to get mad sometimes.
Spock: At the time of transmission, the Peregrine was making an unscheduled emergency landing on a Class L planet, Valeo Beta 5.
M'Benga: Are emergency landings ever scheduled?
