They used to say if man could fly, he'd have wings. But he did fly. He discovered he had to. I don't believe we can stop. In fact through all our existence the frightened and feint hearted have been warning men not to push any further, not to learn any more, not to hope, grow and exceed themselves. I don't believe we can stop, I don't believe we're meant to. Do you wish that the first Apollo mission hadn't reached the moon, or that we hadn't gone on to Mars and then to the nearest star? That's like saying you wish that you still operated with scalpels and sewed your patients up with catgut like your great-great-great-great-grandfather used to. I'm in command. I could order this. But I'm not because, Doctor McCoy is right in pointing out the enormous danger potential in any contact with life and intelligence as fantastically advanced as this. But I must point out that the possibilities, the potential for knowledge and advancement is equally great. Risk. Risk is our business. That's what the starship is all about. That's why we're aboard her. You may dissent without prejudice. Do I hear a negative vote? Capt. Kirk: Risk Is Our Business (Extended Monologue)
