The first regular episode ("The Man Trap") of Star
Trek: The Original Series aired on Thursday, September 8, 1966
David Hajdu:
“Ultimately, then, “Star Trek” was prescient not for its
futurism, with the Enterprise crew using communicators that look like
flip-phones, but for exploring a universe absorbed with pop-culture history.
The slogan for the new movie may be “The future begins,” but what “Star Trek”
really says is, the past continues. “
Star Trek, Capt. James T. Kirk:
"[War] is instinctive. But the instinct can be fought.
We're human beings with the blood of a million savage years on our hands! But
we can stop it. We can admit that we're killers... but we're not going to kill
today. That's all it takes! Knowing that we're not going to kill - today!"
Dave Schilling, The Guardian:
“Star Trek has always shone a light on mankind’s noblest
qualities, but it also reflects our greatest faults. If it takes another 50
years, or 500, let us all hope we start to learn some of those lessons.”
