Chekov, on Sulu: "Aerodynamicists do it in drag."
Sulu, on Chekov: "Quantum physicists can either know how fast they do it or where they do it, but not both."

Spock, on himself: "Logicians do it by choice, consistently and completely."
Kirk, on Spock: "Logicians do it incompletely or inconsistently."
Spock, in response to Kirk: "(Logicians do it) or [not (logicians do it)]."
Kirk, in response to Spock: "Logicians do it with Jensen's device."
--
Kirk, on himself: "Game theorists score most often."
Spock, on Kirk: "Catastrophe theorists do it falling off part of a sheet."
Kirk, in response to Spock: "Game theorists do it with saddle points."
Spock, in response to Kirk: "Chaoticians do it with sensitive dependence."
Kirk, in response to Spock: "Game theorists do it by dominance."

Chekov, on himself: "Physicist do it on the event horizon."
Spock, in response to Chekov: "Mathematicians do it homologically."
Chekov, in response to Spock: "Physicists do it with vectors."
Spock, in response to Chekov: "Mathematicians do it on smooth contours."
Chekov, in response to Spock: "Physicists do it at the right moments."
Spock, in response to Chekov: "Mathematicians do it continuously."
Chekov, in response to Spock: "Physicist do it with force."
Spock, in response to Chekov: "Mathematicians do it without limit."
Chekov, in response to Spock: "Physicists do it in waves."
Spock, in response to Chekov: "Mathematicians do it transcendentally."
Chekov, in response to Spock: "Particle physicists do it energetically."
Spock, in response to Chekov: "Mathematicians do it with primality."
Chekov, in response to Spock: "Astrophysicists do it with a Big Bang."
Spock, with the last word: "Mathematical physicists understand the theory of how to do it, but have difficulty obtaining practical results. Pure mathematicians do it rigorously."
--
Kirk, on Spock: "Probabilists do it stochastically. Oh god."
Spock, on himself: "Topologists do it openly, in multiply connected domains."
--
Spock, on himself: "Combinatorialists do it discretely."
Kirk, on Spock: "Combinatorialists do it as many ways they can."
Spock, on himself: "Number theorists do it perfectly and rationally."
Kirk, in response to Spock: "Number theorists do it in the critical strip."
--
Spock, on Kirk: "Decision theorists do it optimally."
Kirk, in response to Spock: "Fuck yeah I did that optimally."
