"Star Trek" Is There in Truth No Beauty? (TV Episode 1968) Poster

David Frankham: Larry Marvick

Quotes 

  • Dr. McCoy : [toasting]  How can one so beautiful condemn herself to look upon ugliness the rest of her life? Will we allow it, gentlemen?

    Captain James T. Kirk : Certainly not.

    Mr. Spock : Negative.

    Scott , Larry Marvick : No-no.

    Dr. Miranda Jones : [counter-toast to McCoy]  How can one so full of joy and the love of life as you, Doctor, condemn yourself to look upon disease and suffering for the rest of YOUR life? Can we allow THAT, gentlemen?

  • Dr. McCoy : Isn't it suicidal to deal with something ugly enough to drive men mad? Why do you do it?

    Mr. Spock : I see, Doctor McCoy, that you still subscribe to the outmoded notion, promulgated by your ancient Greeks, that what is good must also be beautiful.

    Larry Marvick : And the reverse, of course, that what is beautiful is automatically expected to be good.

    Captain James T. Kirk : Yes, I think most of us are attracted by beauty and repelled by ugliness - one of the last of our prejudices. At the risk of sounding prejudiced, gentlemen, here's to beauty.

  • [Marvick, having seen Kollos, has been driven insane] 

    Larry Marvick : Don't love her! Don't love her! She'll kill you if you love her! I love you, Miranda.

    [he collapses] 

    Dr. McCoy : He's dead, Jim.

  • Larry Marvick : Now I know what a mere human male has to do to get a reaction out of you. Make you think he's a patient. Great psychologist. Why don't you try being a woman for a change?
