It was difficult, and yet I was very eager to do it. It was a really odd thing. I really wanted to do that story. I really wanted to write the death of Captain Kirk. I really wanted to do it in the movie.
Spock was the sex symbol. A lot of people think it was Kirk. But, no, it was really Spock.
There was much to put out of his mind. Why was it difficult to forget Chekov's astonished delight which greeted him at the command airlock when he boarded. And on the bridge - Kirk! The mere name made Spock groan inwardly as he remembered what it had cost him to turn away from that welcome. T'hy'la!
I used to dream of being normal. For me, if Kirk Douglas walked into the house, that was normal.
Kirk Cousins is the future of the Washington Redskins.
Of course I knew the work of Roland Kirk and Harry Carney and the specific uses they would make of circular breathing, so I knew it was physically possible.
All in all, Kirk's character is something I am very proud of.
Kirk Cousins has played much better at the quarterback position than Robert Griffin III has.
The thing I was attracted to as a little girl was Kirk, Bones and Spock, and their utter loyalty. There's nothing more powerful than that.
I met [Shatner] on the set of Star Trek V, and he was horrible to me. He was cruel, and dismissive, and treated me the way I understand he treats pretty much everyone who tells him how much they loved him as Captain Kirk.
Mark Kirk: Lied about going to war. Opposed middle class tax cuts. And said unemployment's not that big an issue.
I think Kirk Johnson is a more exciting fighter than Chris Byrd. A lot of people agree with me when it comes to that.
We were basically one and the same, although Jim Kirk was just about perfect, and, of course, I am perfect.
We stayed very close to each other [with Leek Kirk], and Lee was amazing. We'd go through the script together, rehearsing it before every shot with the other actors. He was just easy to work with. We were able to put it in my language, which was really important.
