Quote #4

GORKON: You don't trust me, do you? I don't blame you. If there is to be a brave new world, our generation is going to have the hardest time living in it.

Gorkon isn't dumb—he knows that Kirk doesn't like Klingons. Despite this, he also knows that Kirk is a good dude, and he hopes that this means they will eventually see eye-to-eye. What's more, he understands that the members of their generation—with their many prejudices against one another—will struggle the most with this shift.

Quote #5

GORKON: Don't let it end this way, Captain.

These are Gorkon's final words. Even on the brink of death, he's more concerned with securing a peaceful future for the galaxy than his own well-being. That's a solid dude right there.

Quote #6

AZETBUR: You want the conference to go forward and so did my father. I will attend in one week on one condition.

Azetbur might not be as idealistic as her father, but she wisely sees the only possible future for her people as a peaceful one. She could have gone out guns blazing, as most action movie villains do, but she instead takes the long view of the situation and realizes that her pops was right.
