Captain James T. Kirk
- Captain James T. Kirk: [about Losira] She must have been... a remarkable woman.
- Dr. McCoy: And beautiful.
- Mr. Spock: Beauty is transitory, Doctor; however, she was evidently highly intelligent.
- Captain James T. Kirk: Kirk to Enterprise, five to beam up. I don't agree with you, Mr. Spock.
- Mr. Spock: Indeed, Captain.
- Captain James T. Kirk: Beauty... survives.
- Losira: I must touch you. I beg it. It is my existence.
- Captain James T. Kirk: We've seen the results of your touch.
- Losira: But you are my match, James Kirk. I MUST touch you.
- Sulu: [taking readings after an earthquake] It's gone!
- [hands Kirk his tricorder]
- Sulu: The Enterprise - it's gone!
- D'Amato: He's right! There's nothing there!
- Dr. McCoy: How could it just be gone? What the devil does that mean, Jim?
- Captain James T. Kirk: For one thing... it means we're stranded.
- Sulu: Once in Siberia there was a meteor so great that it flattened whole forests and was felt as far...
- Captain James T. Kirk: [interrupting] Mr. Sulu, if I'd wanted a Russian history lesson I'd have brought along Mr. Chekov.
- [In trying to dig D'Amato's grave with his phaser, Kirk can't get far]
- Sulu: That's the same red rock.
- Captain James T. Kirk: My phaser didn't cut through it.
- Dr. McCoy: Whatever it is, it has a mighty high melting point.
- Captain James T. Kirk: 8,000 degrees Centigrade. It looks like igneous rock but infinitely denser.
- Captain James T. Kirk: Maybe Spock was wrong. Maybe this is a ghost planet...
- Dr. McCoy: Well, all I know is she almost made a ghost out of Sulu. His shoulder where she touched it... every cell has been disrupted - exploded from within!
