(William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, Nichelle Nichols, Star Trek)

"Well, when I was nine years old, Star Trek came on, I looked at it and I went screaming through the house, 'Come here, mum, everybody, come quick, come quick, there's a black lady on television and she ain't no maid!' I knew right then and there I could be anything I wanted to be."

(Shatnerday, Star Trek)
