Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan Life, Consciousness and Existence Quotes

How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.

Quote #10

McCOY: He's really not dead. As long as we remember him.

KIRK: "It's a far, far better thing I do than I have ever done before… A far better resting place that I go to than I have ever known."

CAROL: Is that a poem? 

KIRK: No, no. Something Spock was trying to tell me. On my birthday.

Like Khan, Kirk ends things with a quote from classic literature. But as Khan's was all fire and blood and bitterness, Kirk's exemplifies peace, wisdom and acceptance.
