We live in grief for having left the womb, for having left the teat, then school, then home. In my case, it was leaving marriages, and the death of my wife.

More quotes by William Shatner
The conundrum of free will and destiny has always kept me dangling.
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 political scene is already so turgid, it doesn't need more of that from me.
William Shatner
Let women figure out why they won't sleep with you. Don't do their work for them.
William Shatner
These people who come to Comic-Con and dress up - all across the country, the rest of the population who doesn't understand are scoffing at them.
William Shatner
My wife and my three kids and my grandchildren are my life, but my horses and my dogs are everything else.
William Shatner
I believe that when things happen, they happen with a purpose.
William Shatner
When I direct and have to look at filmed scenes of myself, I suck.
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
All in all, Kirk's character is something I am very proud of.
William Shatner
I'm always open to the possibility that somebody's got a better idea than I have. It happens with some frequency.
William Shatner
I see people putting text messages on the phone or computer and I think, 'Why don't you just call?'
William Shatner
Gradually the live TV scene simmered out, replaced by film, and that took place in L.A. So many actors left New York.
William Shatner
I love living in Los Angeles.
William Shatner
I proceeded to prove everybody right as to how bad an economics student I was by failing as an assistant manager in every theatre I went to that hired me, both as an assistant manager and as an actor. I lost money and tickets, and I couldn't keep track of anything. So eventually they fired me from assistant-manager jobs, but kept me on as an actor.
William Shatner
I think the acting satisfies the need and desire for approval.
William Shatner
In my proudest moments, I think I had a real hand in the creative force of making 'Star Trek.' But most of the time, I don't think about it.
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
I love the musicality of words.
William Shatner
I had been in a Shakespeare company for three years and done a lot of Shakespeare. That was fun. That was interesting.
