Quotes
-
Voice of Redjac : I am without ending. I have existed from the dawn of time, and I shall I live beyond its end! In the meantime, I shall feed, and this time I do not need a knife. You will all die horribly in searing pain!
Mr. Spock : It is attempting to generate terror, Captain.
Voice of Redjac : I can cut off your oxygen and suffocate you!
Sulu : Captain.
[McCoy injects Sulu with a hydrospray, Sulu immediately becomes euphoric]
Sulu : Whoever he is, he sure talks gloomy.
[starts to rise from chair]
Captain James T. Kirk : [pushing Sulu back into his chair] Man your post, Sulu.

Mr. Spock : An entity which feeds on fear and terror would find a perfect hunting ground on Argelius, a planet without violence, where the inhabitants are as peaceful as sheep. The entity would be as a hungry wolf in that fold.

Captain James T. Kirk : Sybo spoke of a hunger that never dies. Something that thrives on fear, terror, death. Mr. Spock, maybe we're going about it in the wrong way. Let's assume that Sybo was a sensitive. That she DID sense something, something evil.
Mr. Spock : Sensitivity of certain Argelian women is a documented fact, Captain.
Jaris : My poor Sybo's talent was genuine, gentlemen. What she told you was true.
Captain James T. Kirk : All right, then, what was it she said, exactly? A monstrous evil, ancient terror.
Dr. McCoy : That devours all life and light.
Captain James T. Kirk : She said something else, words that didn't make any sense.
Dr. McCoy : Yes. Redjac, Beratis and, er, Kesla.
Captain James T. Kirk : Obscure, meaningless words.
Mr. Spock : To us, perhaps, but to the computer?
Captain James T. Kirk : Ah. Mr. Spock, check them out.
-
Captain James T. Kirk : All right, Mister Spock, what do we have? A creature without form, that feeds on horror and fear, that must assume a physical shape to kill.
Mr. Spock : And I suspect preys on women because women are more easily and more deeply terrified, generating more sheer horror than the male of the species.

Mr. Spock : Computer, this is a Class A compulsory directive. Compute to the last digit the value of pi.
Voice of Redjac : [Off camera] No, no, no, no! No, no!
Mr. Spock : As we know, the value of pi is a transcendental figure without resolution. The computer banks will work on this problem to the exclusion of all else until we order it to stop.
Captain James T. Kirk : Yes, that should keep that thing busy for a while.
-
Scott : What did you do with that thing, Captain? Did you send it back to the planet?
Captain James T. Kirk : No. We beamed it out into open space, Scotty. Widest possible dispersion.
Dr. McCoy : That thing can't die.
Mr. Spock : Possibly, Doctor. Its consciousness may continue for some time, consisting of billions of separate bits of energy, floating forever in space, powerless.
Captain James T. Kirk : But it will die finally.
Captain James T. Kirk : [addressing Mr. Scott] You seem very happy about the whole thing.
Scott : Why not? For a while there I didn't know whether I was innocent or guilty.
