Sulu Quotes


I am not a Starfleet commander, or T.J. Hooker. I don`t live on Starship NCC-1701, or own a phaser. And I don`t know anybody named Bones, Sulu, or Spock. And no, I`ve never had green alien sex, though I`m sure it would be quite an evening. I speak English and French, not Klingon! I drink Labatt`s, not Romulan ale! And when someone says to me `Live long and prosper`, I seriously mean it when I say, `Get a life`. My doctor`s name is not McCoy, it`s Ginsberg. And tribbles were puppets, not real animals. PUPPETS! And when I speak, I never, ever talk like every. Word. Is. Its. Own. Sentence. I live in California, but I was raised in Montreal. And yes, I`ve gone where no man has gone before, but I was in Mexico and her father gave me permission! My name is William Shatner, and I am Canadian!

(on not being cast as Sulu in the new Star Trek movie) When my name came up at Paramount, there were too many obstacles. They had Zach (Quinto, who plays Sylar) from the show to play Spock and they had to write him off Heroes for about three months. To do that with two characters would be impossible. It would have been cool to be part of it.
