Everybody told me to stay in Hollywood. This was the place they said I could have a big career. What they failed to mention was that no one would quite know what to do with me.

Gene Roddenberry was a genius.

I just have beautiful memories of what has happened in my life.

I arrived in Hollywood and lived much of my life in America, but the fans did not really know me.

Creative people are very insecure people because they don't know whether people like them or are in awe of them. That insecurity always comes out. It makes them a better actor, I feel.

Maybe I'm being philosophical and spiritual, but I believe that if you put negative energy out there that that is what will come back.

I'm going down in history with Star Trek. It's a great feeling.
