Pavel doesn’t have a brother. He’s an only child.
That which we call a rose would by any other name smell as sweet!
Oh, I don’t know… I lost, didn’t I?
Riker: I’m sorry they startled you, Mrs. Troi. They’re Antedean delegates; they’re being stored here temporarily.
Lwaxana Troi: Delegates? Last time I saw something like that it was being served on a plate.
Lwaxana Troi: [of the Antedeans] I still say they look better in sauce.
One of my faves of all of TNG:
“Thank you for the drinks.” - Mr. Homn
“… Limited range!”
The fresh air seems to have made you trigger-happy!
“I’ll keep that in mind, Mister Bailey, when this becomes a democracy.”
CHEKOV: “Got him!”
Was that Bailey instead of Stiles? :dubious:
Yup!
Bailey, clearly spooked by the cube, nervously suggested firing phasers, and he expressed his strong opinion as offering up a vote.
Stiles may have seemed repeatedly on the edge of insubordiantion, but it wasn’t his style (!) to offer up a vote.
And the conference meeting Kirk decided to hold really gave everyone present, including him, a “voice” on the current crisis, if not a vote.
And Stiles did once again get out of hand:
“Sit down, Mister!”
Do me a favour, Jim. Don’t tell Spock I said he was the best First Officer in the fleet.
You were so busy worrying about his Vulcan eyes, you forgot about his Vulcan ears!
I may have been thinking of “Galileo Seven,” when someone says “The majority!” and Spock replies “I am not interested in the opinions of ‘the majority.’” But I somehow always associate that line with Stiles in the briefing room sequence in “Balance of Terror.”
You are quite correct that “the majority” was mentioned in The Galileo Seven.
***SPOCK: It does, indeed. It seems logical to me, also. But to take life indiscriminately,
GAETANO: The majority.
SPOCK: I am not interested in the opinion of the majority, Mister Gaetano. Components must be weighed. Our danger to ourselves as well as our duties to other life forms, friendly or not. There’s a third course.
GAETANO: That could get us killed. ***
You know, it seems that challenging authority, even up to outright insubordination, such as falsely stepping into command of a vessel (as Spock did with a clever ruse in Menagerie I & II) was a rather frequent theme in Season 1, TOS.
Another quote comes to mind, although I have several more already in the pipeline:
***BOMA: My tone isn’t the only thing that’s hostile, Mister Spock! ***

Don’t leave me alone. Please, please. So lonely.
You know, Homer was blind. Milton, Bach, Monet, Wonder…
Captain’s log; supplemental…
I always think of the invisible toilets when he says that.
