Acting is easier - writing is more creative. The lazy man vies with the industrious.
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
We meet aliens every day who have something to give us. They come in the form of people with different opinions.

I had been in a Shakespeare company for three years and done a lot of Shakespeare. That was fun. That was interesting. It was a lot of work - anything other than Shakespeare was less work. I had a lot of interesting roles, but I don't point to them and say, That was more interesting than that, because I don't know what the criteria are.

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?

What does God need with a starship?
William Shatner
All in all, Kirk's character is something I am very proud of.
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
My dad was good with actions.
William Shatner
Why does the lizard stick his tongue out? The lizard sticks its tongue out because that's the way its listening and looking and tasting its environment. It's its means of appreciating what's in front of it.
William Shatner
Nobody could have imagined the phenomenon that 'Star Trek' became. It's still almost impossible to imagine.
William Shatner
Has it ever occurred to you that how we deal with death is at least as important as how we deal with life?
William Shatner
The mysteriousness and mystique of space is such, that science fiction attempts to tantalize you by telling you a story that could possibly be out there and that's the appeal of science fiction.
William Shatner
I'm so not ready to die. It petrifies me. I go alone. I go to a place I don't know. It might be painful. It might be the end. My thought is that it is the end. I become nameless, and I spent a lifetime being known.
William Shatner
A stage actor has to be 10% aware of the audience as he's performing.
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.
