This television meme was snagged from [personal profile] autographedcat by way of [personal profile] serenejournal. The idea is to answer one question a day from the list below. (Yes, yes I'm way behind. Never mind the applicability of the day numbers. I'm just keeping the numbering because I'm anal that way. I'm slow at this but I'm still having fun answering them when I can, so moving right along :-) Today's is:

Day 24 - Best quote.

I have a fondness for the opening of The Outer Limits, "There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We can reduce the focus to a soft blur, or sharpen it to crystal clarity. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to... The Outer Limits."

I also still like, "[War] is instinctive. But the instinct can be fought. We're human beings with the blood of a million savage years on our hands! But we can stop it. We can admit that we're killers ... but we're not going
to kill today. That's all it takes! Knowing that we're not going to kill today!"
-- Kirk, "A Taste of Armageddon"

But my favorite still has to be Star Trek's opening monologue, specifically The Next Generation version:

"Space, the final frontier....These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise. Her five year mission: to explore strange new worlds.To seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no *one* has gone before."
