Abraham Sofaer: Melkotian

Quotes 

• Melkotian : [voice]  You, Captain Kirk, the disobedience was on your orders. Yours is the responsibility. Yours shall be the pattern of your death.

  Capt. Kirk : We come in peace. But we'll defend ourselves if necessary.

  Melkotian : [voice]  You are outside. You are disease. The disease must be destroyed. Your plea has been heard, and sentence has been pronounced. It is done.

• Melkotian : You did not kill. Is this the way of your kind?

  Capt. Kirk : It is. We prefer the ways of peaceful contact. I speak for a vast alliance of fellow creatures who believe in the same thing. We have sought you out to join us. Our mission is still one of peace...

  Melkotian : [a long pause]  Approach our planet and be welcome. A delegation will come out to meet you. Our warning threats are over.
