William Shatner

William Shatner
The idea of being a professional actor never occurred to anybody, including myself, for a long time.
William Shatner

William Shatner
I've never been without a dog. I've made trips across the country with a dog. I've been in that angst of loneliness, where you're really alone in the universe, except for the dog.
William Shatner
What is down will go up. At the same time, you have to be prepared for what is up to go down.

Mysteries simply are a feast for an active mind. And while in my lifetime I've seen science make extraordinary inroads into solving the most complex questions of life, after all this time I admit that I am thrilled that there are some things that forever will remain a mystery. For example, do I wear a toupee?
William Shatner
