Heroes, classical heroes have the look of eagles, too. They're looking beyond the immediate problem and into the future.
William Shatner
There was nothing lonelier than a man with a million friends.
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
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
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
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

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
Pain and guilt can't be taken away with the wave of a magic wand. They're the things we carry with us, the things that make us who we are. If we lose them, we lose ourselves. I don't want my pain taken away! I need my pain!
William Shatner
Acting is easier - writing is more creative. The lazy man vies with the industrious.
William Shatner
One of the advantages of being a captain is being able to ask for advice without necessarily having to take it.
William Shatner
I'm anxious to make another film.
William Shatner
My dad died of a stroke.
William Shatner
You have to continuously fail. You fail at something, then you get over it, then you fail some more. And after you fail, there's always something new there. And that something new can be really interesting.
William Shatner
When I did the film Generations, in which the character died, I felt like a guest for the first time. That made me very sad.
William Shatner
People have an affinity towards things, and you don't know where it comes from. Mozart wrote a symphony when he was four, so it's said the theory is maybe because his father was a conductor, it happened in vitro, and he heard the music before he was born, and by the age of four he knew how to write music.
William Shatner
My dad was good with actions.
William Shatner
Marriage is a reflection of your life in general: how you treat people, how you argue, how secure you are in your own thoughts. How vehemently do you argue your point of view? With what disdain do you view the other's point of view?
William Shatner
Youth is the ultimate limited resource.
