What's Your Favorite, Not at All Epic, Star Trek Quote (startrek.website)

There are inspiring, epic quotes in Star Trek. Words that stir the soul, shining a light on paths to a brighter now and a better future. But, what about those bits of dialog that don't have a stirring message, that you enjoy just because you enjoy them?

One of my favorites, from DSC season 3, Episode 1:

"I don't know. But it was temperature-sensitive and really valuable, so it's probably ice cream."

Burnham is captured and being questioned at the Merchantile. After being spritzed with a dose of space truth serum, Burnham's captors question her about stolen cargo. When asked by her captors what the cargo is, a very drugged up Burnham says the above with serious sincerity. I love the entirety of Burnham's chattering and behavior while she is under the influence of the space truth serum. That particular line always makes me smile, though.

Do you have a favored, not particularly inspiring, you just like it, Star Trek quote?

I just mentioned it yesterday: "the thing to know about dealing with romulans is that they are without honor."

Thanks for the hot tip, worf.

“Double dumbass on you!”

Right up there with:

“No ma’am. No dipshit.”

Kirk: All hands, this is the captain. We're going to enter the body of the organism... rather abruptly, I would think.

Shatner's delivery of "rather abruptly, I would think" always makes me laugh.
