More quotes by William Shatner
Mysteries simply are a feast for an active mind.

William Shatner
We meet aliens every day who have something to give us. They come in the form of people with different opinions.
William Shatner
Let women figure out why they won't sleep with you. Don't do their work for them.
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
Careers are here and they're gone. No matter how great we think we are, we're nothing but the temples of Ozymandias-we're ruins in the making.
William Shatner
I envy the people who say, 'oh, well, I've got my name in the golden book and I'm going to be entered into the pearly gates.'
William Shatner
I always thought that the spine of a character was awe and wonder.
William Shatner
I'm always open to the possibility that somebody's got a better idea than I have. It happens with some frequency.

I believe that when things happen, they happen with a purpose.
