David's Quotes
- "I always get nervous when talking to Starfleet. We are dealing with something
that could be perverted into a dreadful weapon. You remember that boy scout you use to
spend time with." -- David Marcus, "David, Jim Kirk was many things, but he was never
a boy scout." -- Carol Marcus, TWOK
- "Saavik was right. You never have faced death." -- David Marcus, "No...not like this.
I've cheated death, tricked my way out of death, and then patted myself on the back for
my ingenuity. I know nothing." -- Kirk, "You knew enough to tell Saavik, that the way we
face death is at least as important as the way we face life." -- David Marcus "Just words..."
-- Kirk, "But good words. I was wrong about you, and I'm sorry." -- David Marcus, "Is that
what you came to say?" -- Kirk, "Mainly. And that I'm proud, very proud, to be your son."
-- David Marcus, TWOK
- "It's time for total truth between us. (pause) This planet is not what you had expected
or hope for." -- Saavik, "Not exactly." -- David Marcus, "Why?" -- Saavik, "I used protomatter
in the Genesis matrix." -- David Marcus, "Protomatter. An unstable substance that every
ethical scientist in the galaxy has denounced as highly volatile, dangerously
unpredictable." -- Saavik, "But it was the only way to solve certain problems." -- David
Marcus, "So like your Father, you changed the rules." -- Saavik, "If I hadn't, it might have
taken years, or never." -- David Marcus, "How many people have paid the price for your
impatience? How many have died? How much damage have you done? And what is yet to come?"
-- Saavik "They're coming, I'll go." -- Saavik, "NO! I'll do it.
Give me your phaser." -- David Marcus, TSFS
- "Knew you'd come." -- David Marcus, "What went wrong." -- Kirk, "I did." -- David Marcus,
"I don't understand." -- Kirk, "I'm sorry, sir. Just don't surrender. Genesis doesn't work. I
can't believe they'd kill us for it." -- David Marcus, "Admiral, I meant what I said. And now
to prove my intentions, I will kill one of the prisoners." -- Kruge, "Wait. Give me a minute
to..." -- Kirk, (speaking klingonee to the klingons on the planet -- translated) "Kill one of
them. I don't care which." -- Kruge (wispering) "Spock? David? Saavik?" -- Kirk, "Admiral, David is dead." -- Saavik,
(barely audible) "You Klingon Ba$tard, you've just killed my son." -- Kirk, TSFS
