KIRK: Before we picked you up, our ship sustained a number of incredible effects.

KIRK: Is he the thing that attacked you?
LAZARUS: Yes. I give you my word. I swear it.
KIRK: We don’t have any other facts, any information.

MUDD: Listen to this carefully, Norman. I am lying.
NORMAN: You say you are lying, but if everything you say is a lie then you are telling the truth, but you cannot tell the truth because everything you say is a lie. You lie. You tell the truth. But you cannot for. Illogical! Illogical! Please explain.
