Space is not silent. If one has the ears -- the appropriate methods to listen with -- the seemingly emptiness and black desolation is transformed into a raucous chorus of bleeps, pops, whistles, and hums. The steady modulated whines of patient quasars, the discordant sizzle of black holes, and the stentoriam drone of unseen pulsars -- all contribute their voices to a heavenly choir of awesome complexity and rhythm. From white dwarf to red giant, every sun exhibits its own distinctive, individual sizzle-pop in the same way that animals give off special odors, or flowers display colors. -- "The Survivor", in Star Trek Log Two What, exactly, is a flash of genius? Mental stimulation. A concatenation of cerebral cross-currents. The fusion of one particle of cause with another of effect which -- once in a while, just once in a while -- produces a molecule of solution. -- Star Trek Log Two |

different servers and/or under different website addresses/URLs. Credits for specific entries in this "Star Trek Quotes" website are given "as is" and where possible, but mention of thanks should also go especially to www.startrek.com and the relevant wiki's such as MEMORY ALPHA and MEMORY BETA as well as to the very informative THE EPISODE GUIDE website, which has a comprehensive index of sci-fi shows (real cool!).
