More quotes by William Shatner
I have been accused of never saying no.
William Shatner
There's a joy and a pain about directing where the dreams you have are becoming concrete but the attention to detail, the need for time is such that it's overwhelming at times, and the stream of responsibility.
William Shatner
When I was out for the Christmas Holidays in school, I would go skiing up to the mountains and there they had Santa on a sled. Pulled by horses and other reindeer, it was a very, very picturesque time and that struck me very emphatically then and has remained with me all this time.
William Shatner
I played comedies and dramas.
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
My dad was good with actions.
William Shatner
My kids say if there's any family dinner that doesn't result in somebody crying, it's not a good dinner. They cry because it helps relieve them of a guilt or some onerous emotional burden. It's like a family tradition.
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
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.
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
Yeah, I do stand-up, my own type of stand-up.
William Shatner
If saving money is wrong, I don't want to be right!
William Shatner
You need to be silly to be funny.
William Shatner
Spencer Tracy was a man who did very much what I do on a set, and that is, he comes down and he does his job, and then he goes back to his dressing room.
William Shatner
Christmas is fun anyway. It's a myth organized over the years and gained different mythological qualities as the years go by.
William Shatner
The basic quality that any great story must have is a story that illustrates the human condition.
William Shatner
My site has the whole thing - blogs, information, video interviews.
William Shatner
Avatar is a watershed movie. We'll always refer to Lawrence of Arabia in the same way. We'll always look at Avatar and say, That's about as good as it gets. It's an enormous advance, in every way, shape and form, of movie making.
William Shatner
I'm not out to convince anybody of anything.
William Shatner
I have had mystical experiences with horses. I felt they were communicating with me in horse communication.
