• Dr. McCoy : Unusual eye arrangement. I might've known he'd turn up something like that.

  Capt. Kirk : What's that, doctor?

  Dr. McCoy : I said, please don't tell Spock I said he was the best first officer in the fleet.

  Spock : Why thank you, Dr. McCoy.

  Capt. Kirk : You've been so concerned about his Vulcan eyes, Doctor, you forgot about his Vulcan ears.

• Capt. Kirk : Mr. Spock, regaining eyesight would be an emotional experience for most. You, I presume felt nothing?

  Spock : Quite the contrary, Captain, I had a very strong reaction. My first sight was the face of Dr. McCoy bending over me.

  Dr. McCoy : Hm, 'tis a pitty brief blindness did not increase your appreciation for beauty, Mr. Spock.

• [Spock, infected, beams down to the planet to collect a specimen] 

  Dr. McCoy : Jim, that man is sick - and don't give me any damnable logic about him being the only man for the job.

  Capt. Kirk : I don't have to, Bones. We both know he is.

• Dr. McCoy : [holding a beaker of tentacle tissue]  Evidently, when the creature attacks it, uh, leaves a stinger much like a bee or a wasp, leaving one of these in the victim's body, and it takes over the victim very rapidly, and the entwining is far, far too involved for conventional surgery to remove.

• Dr. McCoy : [examining four stunned Denevans]  There's something wrong, Jim. Their nervous systems - unconscious like this there should be just routine autonomic activity, but I'm getting a very high reading as though, even in their unconscious state, they're being violently stimulated.
