You know, the process of making a documentary is one of discovery, and like writing a story, you follow a lead and that leads you to something else and then by the time you finish, the story is nothing like you expected.

More quotes by William Shatner
The idea of being a professional actor never occurred to anybody, including myself, for a long time.
William Shatner
It was the early 1970s and I was recently divorced. I had three kids and was totally broke. I managed to find work back east on the straw-hat circuit - summer stock - but couldn't afford hotels, so I lived out of the back of my truck, under a hard shell.
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 not out to convince anybody of anything.
William Shatner
I love to go to a movie, get a Diet Coke and a barrel of popcorn, and sit there with my kids and watch a film.
William Shatner
Never buy anything that eats while you sleep.
William Shatner
How do I stay so healthy and boyishly handsome? It's simple. I drink the blood of young runaways.
William Shatner
Here's something pompous - you take your day and artistically create it, so every moment has an artistic flavor.
William Shatner
My beautiful wife is dead. She meant everything to me. Her laughter, her tears and her joy will remain with me the rest of my life.
William Shatner
What have I done? I've blundered my way through life. So I have my picture on the wall. The minute I die, that picture will start to yellow and fade and eventually be gone. Blown in the wind and become part of the molecular structure of something else. These things we see as success, they're non-accomplishments.
William Shatner
A pretty girl is certainly comparable to a good horse.
William Shatner
I did a movie in Esperanto.
William Shatner
I can't stand the gossip of celebrities' lives, all the time! Every minute!
William Shatner
We're all embers from the same fire. Our ember winks out, we're ashes, we go back to the fire. I like that image. There has to be a unifying theory. I think there is a continuity of some kind, that my love for my wife will go on past the death of my body. Nature is perfect.
William Shatner
I think making a good film shot is joyful.
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've discovered that the more freedom I have to be creative, the more creative I become.
William Shatner
Things people say strike me as amusing, and I am prone to saying out loud what everybody's thinking.
William Shatner
But if you want to know the truth, the weirdest thing that has happened has been my discovery that people who attend the conventions are filled with love.
William Shatner
Most people, including myself, keep repeating the same mistakes.
