More quotes by William Shatner
The basic quality that any great story must have is a story that illustrates the human condition.
William Shatner
You might as well aim high. Why shoot yourself in the foot when you can shoot yourself in the head?
William Shatner
Divorce is simply modern society's version of medieval torture. Except it lasts longer and leaves deeper scars. A divorce releases the most primitive emotions the ugliest, raw feelings. Emotionally wounded people do their best to inflict pain upon the other party, but rather than using claws they use divorce lawyers.
William Shatner
I've been approached to do some things with astronauts and the preparation that astronauts go through.
William Shatner
The idea of being a professional actor never occurred to anybody, including myself, for a long time.

William Shatner
I want to discover a truth for myself that is really true. Whether it's a piece of scientific knowledge, or a philosophical truth.
William Shatner
Montreal is a very cosmopolitan, sophisticated, erudite, educated, glorious city today. But it wasn't quite that way when I was growing up there. There was a lot of anti-Semitism. And I had to deal with that in an area of the city that had very few Jews.
William Shatner
I slept for four days when I turned 40.
William Shatner
Everybody has their 15 minutes, and those 15 minutes should be spent in a private limo and a private plane. It's the ultimate.
William Shatner
My name is William Shatner, and I am Canadian!
William Shatner
Nobody could have imagined the phenomenon that 'Star Trek' became. It's still almost impossible to imagine.
William Shatner
I've come to the conclusion that athletes, when they say they miss the crowd, are not missing the sound of the crowd. What they're missing is the feeling inside that makes the crowd roar. It's not the roar of the crowd, it's the silence inside.
William Shatner
My mother was born in the city, my dad was an immigrant. Probably from Germany. Could have been Austria, could have been Poland. The borders were changing. My dad brought over a large family of Shatners when he was very young. Scraped together the money, got 11 brothers and sisters a passage on the boat. There's a lot of Shatners in Montreal.
William Shatner
I'm not out to convince anybody of anything.
William Shatner
The pictures remind you of something that can never be recaptured, the time is gone, the only thing you know is the present. That's all that's knowable and even the present isn't knowable. The present becomes the past... so you really don't know anything.
William Shatner
