| Kirk : | "A star captain's most solemn oath is that he will give his life, even his entire crew, rather than violate the Prime Directive." | | to His log |
|
| Cloud William : | "Freedom? Freedom? That is a worship word. Yang worship. You will not speak it." | | to Kirk |
|
| Tracey : | "We've got to stay alive. Let the Yangs kill us and destroy what we have to offer and we'll have committed a crime against all humanity. I'd say that's slightly more important than the Prime Directive, wouldn't you, Jim?" | | to Kirk |
|
| Tracey : | "They sacrificed hundreds just to draw us out in the open! And then they came... and they came! We drained four of our phasers, and they still came! We killed thousands and they still came!" | | to Kirk |
|
| Tracey : | "You have a well-trained bridge crew, Captain. My compliments." | | to Kirk |
|
| Tracey : | "I caution you, gentlemen, don't fight me here. I'll win. Or at worst, I'll drag you down with me." | | to Kirk |
|
| Cloud William : | "I am Cloud William, chief. Also son of chief. Guardian of the holies, speaker of the holy words, leader of warriors. Many have died, but this is the last of the Kohm places. What is ours, is ours again." |
|
| Tracey : | "He was cast out! Don't you recognise the Evil One? Who else would trick you with your own sacred words? Let your God strike me dead if I lie. But he won't, because I speak for him!" | | to Cloud William |
|
| Kirk : | "...Liberty and freedom have to be more than just words." | | to Spock; justifing yet another prime directive violation |
