Quotes 

• Mr. Spock : A Vulcan would face such a loss without tears.

  Young Spock : How?

  Mr. Spock : By understanding every life comes to an end when time demands it. Loss of life is to be mourned, but only if the life was wasted.

• Young Spock : Do you think I'll ever be able to do that neck pinch as well as you?

  Mr. Spock : I dare say you will.

• Mr. Spock : [comforting I-Chaya, his pet sehlat]  This did not happen before. My life decision was made without the sacrifice of yours, old friend. I know there is pain. I can help a little. Sleep now.

• Doctor McCoy : If that was supposed to be a joke, Spock, I have to remind you Vulcans don't tell jokes.

  Mr. Spock : Times change, Doctor. Times change.

• Sarek : My apologies, visitor. I regret you were witness to that unfortunate display of emotion on the part of my son.

  Mr. Spock : In the family, all is silence. No more will be said of it.

• Sarek : You saved my son's life, Selek. There is no way I can fully repay you for that.

  Mr. Spock : [as Selek]  Try to understand your son, Sarek of Vulcan. It will be repayment enough for me.

  Sarek : A strange request, but I will honor it.

• Mr. Spock : There is some human blood in my family line. It is not fatal.

• Bates : There is no Vulcan named Spock serving with the Starfleet in any capacity.

  Mr. Spock : [after further discussion]  What of Sarek's family: his wife and son?

  Bates : [as Amanda's picture appears]  Amanda, wife of Sarek, born on Earth as Amanda Grayson. The couple separated after the death of their son. The wife was killed in a shuttle accident at Lunaport on her way home to Earth. Ambassador Sarek has not remarried.

  Mr. Spock : My mother. The son... what was his name and age when he died?

  Bates : Spock, age seven.

• Commander Thelin : This change in the timeline will put you in my place, yet I am not aggrieved.

  Mr. Spock : Andorians are not known for their charity.

  Commander Thelin : True. A warrior race has few sympathies, but one we do possess is for family. In your time-plane, you will live, and so will your mother. That is valuable.

  [Gives Vulcan hand gesture] 

  Commander Thelin : Live long and prosper in your world, Commander Spock.

  Mr. Spock : [Returning Vulcan hand gesture]  And you in yours, Commander Thelin.
