Quotes

McCoy : Spock, I've always suspected you were a little more human than you let on. Mrs. Sarek, I know about the rigorous training of the Vulcan youth, but tell me, did he ever run and play like the human children, even in secret?
Amanda : Well, he, uh, he did have a pet Sehlat he was very fond of.
McCoy : Sehlat?
Amanda : It's sort of a... a fat teddy bear.
McCoy : [grinning] A teddy bear?
Sarek : Excuse me, Doctor. It has been a rather long day for my wife. Captain.
Captain James T. Kirk : Ambassador.
McCoy : [needlingly Spock after Sarek and Amada have gone] "A teddy bear."
Spock : Not precisely, Doctor. On Vulcan the "teddy bears" are alive, and they have 6-inch fangs
-
Amanda : And you, Sarek, would you also say thank you to your son?
Sarek : I don't understand.
Amanda : For saving your life.
Sarek : Spock acted in the only logical manner open to him. One does not thank logic, Amanda.
Amanda : Logic! Logic! I'm sick to death of logic! Do you want to know how I feel about your logic?
Spock : Emotional, isn't she?
Sarek : She has always been that way.
Spock : Indeed. Why did you marry her?
Sarek : At the time it seemed the logical thing to do.
-
Sarek : Tellarites do not argue for reasons. They simply argue.

Captain James T. Kirk : [Capt. Kirk is giving Sarek and his wife - Spock's parents - a tour of the USS "Enterprise"] Mr. Spock, a moment if you please...
Captain James T. Kirk : [Spock comes over to his parents and Capt. Kirk] Explain the computer components.
Sarek : [awkward pause, as Sarek looks at Spock a little coldly] I gave Spock his first instruction in computers, Captain. He chose to devote his knowledge to Starfleet, instead of the Vulcan Science Academy.
Spock : [looks a little uncomfortable] If you will excuse me, Captain.
[turns and walks away]
