William Shatner's quotes
- [When asked if he wore a hairpiece] It's a question that I find like asking somebody, "Did you have a breast implant?" or "When did you get your lobotomy?".
- We were basically one and the same, although Jim [Kirk] was just about perfect, and, of course, I am perfect.
- What he tells his kids about money: Don't buy anything on time, and that includes cars and houses. (Money magazine, 2007)
- I'm not going to have a tombstone. I'm going to be tossed in the air. Ashes, tossed like a salad.
- [on the pyrotechnic opening to the 2012 Juno Awards] Sure there were flames, but if the drummer survived, what's the point?
- [on the death of Leonard Nimoy] I loved him like a brother. We will all miss his humor, his talent and his capacity to love.
- [when asked how long he foresees himself acting; Starlog magazine, 1986] I'll work as an actor until I die. But I do see myself spending less time acting and more time doing other things.
- [on climate change activism] The moronic ridiculousness of the woke set who go to extremes to condemn others while sitting in Carbon squalor is hysterical.
- [on woke culture] To be woke is to be uniformed which is exactly the opposite of what it stands for.
- [on the recent Star Trek shows on Paramoont+] I got to know [Star Trek creator] Gene Roddenberry in three years fairly well. He'd be turning in his grave at some of this stuff.
