About Gene Roddenberry: "Well, he was a very tall and imposing-looking man, first off. He was a very adamant man. He was also very kind and sweet. He had a lot of sides to him. Our life together was wonderful. It just didn't go on long enough." (September 2006) On how Gene Roddenberry would have felt about digitally remastering all the "Star Trek" (1966) episodes: "You know what? He wouldn't have been bothered by it at all. Gene did the best work he could at the time, but he was also all about the future. I think he'd have thought it was terrific that the show was being made to look better because of new technology." (September 2006) "What's nice is you know a "Star Trek" movie is still one that everybody wants. It remains Paramount's cash cow, so there's no danger of it going away anytime soon." (September 2006) On what inspired Gene Roddenberry to create a TV series set in space: "It was the studio (Desilu) mainly. They wanted a show set in space. Gene wanted to do one that was more science fiction. So he decided to combine them both and see what happens." (September 2006) On how Gene Roddenberry felt about 'Star Trek' revival movies and the "Next Generation" show: "He was never really satisfied with the way any of them came out. It was just his own frustration at wanting everything to be perfect. It was nothing against the people he worked with." (September 2006)
