I don't think you ever leave Star Trek for good.

I like contemporary American literature and I like biographies and I like jazz and I like baseball and I like writers who write about the human condition and sci-fi is just something that I happened into.

If the prime directives were followed a little more accurately here on earth, I mean it sounds somewhat Pollyanna, but I think people would certainly get along better.

I think that I've been pigeon-holed by virtue of the fact that I've spent so much time in front of a green screen.

I always enjoyed going into the holodeck.

Don't get me wrong-I'm very thankful for all the aliens I've met and loved.

I think I'm a better director than I ever was an actor. I'd love to go back to acting, but nobody seems to want me.
