William Shatner
I also derive a great deal of pleasure from horses and dogs... the ocean... and love.
William Shatner
You might as well aim high. Why shoot yourself in the foot when you can shoot yourself in the head?
William Shatner
Heroes, classical heroes have the look of eagles, too. They're looking beyond the immediate problem and into the future.
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.
