Here are a few: "No Trek is better than mediocre Trek" -- Anonymous Star Trek fan in reaction to the "Enterprise" TV series "Why worry? Each one of us is carrying an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back." -- Dr. Peter Venkman (Bill Murray, Ghostbusters, 1984) "This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back.

You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes." -- Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne, The Matrix, 1999) "Hell of a thing, killin' a man.

And that no longer holds my interest." -- Ikat'ika (James Horan, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine), a Jem'Hadar soldier's words to his commander about why he stopped his fight-to- the-death vs. Lt.
