• (Capt. Kirk) "You don't think so, WHAT?"
• (Spock) "I don't think so, SIR."

• (Leila Kolomi) "You never told me if you had another name, Mr Spock?"

• (Dr. McCoy) "Who wants to counteract paradise, Jim-boy?"

• (Dr. McCoy) "Well, that's the second time man's been thrown out of paradise."
• (Captain James T. Kirk) "No, no, Bones, this time we walked out on our own. Maybe we weren't meant for paradise. Maybe we were meant to fight our way through, struggle, claw our way up, scratch for every inch of the way. Maybe we can't stroll to the music of the lute. We must march to the sound of drums."

• (Dr. McCoy) "On pure speculation, just an educated guess, I'd say that man is alive."

• (Captain James T. Kirk) "Captain's log, stardate 3417.7. Except for myself, all crew personnel have transported to the surface of the planet, mutinied. Lieutenant Uhura has effectively sabotaged the communications station. I can only contact the surface of the planet. The ship can be maintained in orbit for several months, but even with automatic controls, I cannot pilot her alone. In effect, I am marooned here. I'm beginning to realize -- just how big this ship really is. How quiet. I don't know how to get my crew back, how to counteract the effect of the spores. I don't know what I can offer against -- paradise."

• (Captain James T. Kirk) "I had to make you angry enough to shake off their influence. That's the answer, Mr. Spock."
• (Spock) "That may be correct, Captain, but trying to initiate a brawl with over 500 crewmen and colonists is hardly logical."
• (Captain James T. Kirk) "I had something else in mind."

• (Capt. Kirk) "The frequency is open, but he doesn't answer."
• (McCoy) "That didn't sound at all like Spock, Jim."
• (Capt. Kirk) "No? I thought you said you might like him if he mellowed a little."

• (McCoy) "Oh, no? Would you like to see just how fast I can put you in a hospital?"
• (Elias Sandoval) "I am the leader of this colony. I'll assign you to whatever work I think is suitable."
• (McCoy) "Just a minute."
• (McCoy) "Better make me a mechanic. Then I can treat little tin gods like you."
• (McCoy) "Sorry, Sandoval. I don't know what made me do that."
• (Elias Sandoval) "We've done nothing here. No accomplishments, no progress. Three years wasted. We wanted to make this planet a garden."
• (McCoy) "You can't stay here. You can't survive without the spores. After you've cleared at the starbase, you could be relocated. It depends on what you want."
• (Elias Sandoval) "I think I'd -- I think WE'D like to get some work done, the work we started out to do."

• (Capt. Kirk) "Mr. Spock, there were 150 men, women and children in that colony. What're the chances of survivors?"
