More quotes by William Shatner
And I enjoyed the celebrity and the creativity that was involved in Star Trek.
William Shatner
You can't do anything about the past. And you don't know what the future is.
William Shatner
I'm so not ready to die. It petrifies me. I go alone. I go to a place I don't know. It might be painful. It might be the end. My thought is that it is the end. I become nameless, and I spent a lifetime being known.
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
How do I stay so healthy and boyishly handsome? It's simple. I drink the blood of young runaways.
William Shatner
Is there a God? There is, but we don't know where. Or who. And, indeed, why.
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
There's an ecstasy about doing something really good on film: the composition of a shot, the drama within the shot, the texture... It's palpable.
William Shatner
I often conduct interviews in my truck.
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
A stage actor has to be 10% aware of the audience as he's performing.
William Shatner
Babies have big heads and big eyes, and tiny little bodies with tiny little arms and legs. So did the aliens at Roswell! I rest my case.
William Shatner
I enjoyed reading all the classic authors like Isaac Asimov and Bradbury.
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
Things people say strike me as amusing, and I am prone to saying out loud what everybody's thinking.
William Shatner
This is my saddest story: In grade school, they would have us open our Valentine's cards and read them out loud. I always sent cards to myself because nobody else did.
William Shatner
Mysteries simply are a feast for an active mind. And while in my lifetime I've seen science make extraordinary inroads into solving the most complex questions of life, after all this time I admit that I am thrilled that there are some things that forever will remain a mystery. For example, do I wear a toupee?
William Shatner
The basic quality that any great story must have is a story that illustrates the human condition.
William Shatner
The essence of paint ball is the fact that when you get hit by a ball full of paint, it hurts just enough to say, 'Ow, I gotta get out of the way,' but not enough to say, 'I quit.'
William Shatner
The good life is one that's artistically made.
William Shatner
