More quotes by William Shatner
And I enjoyed the celebrity and the creativity that was involved in Star Trek.
William Shatner
I want to discover a truth for myself that is really true. Whether it's a piece of scientific knowledge, or a philosophical truth.
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

William Shatner
I often conduct interviews in my truck.
William Shatner

William Shatner
Yeah, I do stand-up, my own type of stand-up.
William Shatner
Although I'm a business major out of McGill University, I know nothing... but then I found out much later in life, nobody knows anything.
William Shatner
My boy, that was a TV show. I used a stunt double. I always use a stunt double. Except in love scenes. I insist on doing those myself.
William Shatner
Most people, including myself, keep repeating the same mistakes.
William Shatner
I love the musicality of words.
William Shatner
I never watched 'Star Trek.'
William Shatner
You have to create your life. You have to carve it, like a sculpture.
William Shatner
If there's anything I'm not pompous about, it's myself or my work. But I seem to be able to play it.
William Shatner
I guess the disc jockey thought I was trying to sing or something so ... they had fun with it. But the reality was that it was something, there was a concept behind it.
William Shatner
I love to evoke the bones and meat and thoughts of characters.
William Shatner
Youth is the ultimate limited resource.
