I think Star Trek has been very double-edged for all of us - as actors, writers, directors.

One of my philosophies as a director is to listen to other people's great ideas because they'll help make you better.

Someone once said "Don't try to be a great man. Just be a man, and let history make its own judgements."

I think, unfortunately or fortunately, the reality of Hollywood is that if your movie makes money, they'll make another one.

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.

I always enjoyed going into the holodeck.
