It’s the birthday of Star Trek actor Michael Dorn and we’re celebrating with some Worf quotes!
Star Trek: The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine actor Michael Dorn is celebrating his birthday today. The man known to many Trek fans as Worf, the Klingon Starfleet officer across two of the most beloved series, is as big of a fan favorite as they come. So we thought we’d show our love and support for Dorn and his character Worf by looking at some of his best quotes.
Worf is a fountain of great character moments, made even better by his dialogue. He’s a character who can both be taken very seriously and used for comedic relief and the writers balance this perfectly by having Worf remain himself in every scenario. Using his sincerity or over-the-top seriousness against the backdrop of an absurd situation.
With that, let’s look at some of the character’s best lines.
15 of Worf’s best lines across Star Trek
- “Death to the opposition!” (playing baseball with Vulcans.)
- “What exactly is this infant doing in my home?”
- “Then die in ignorance. I can waste no more time on you.”
- “I am Worf, son of Mogh.”
- “I have much to teach you about women”
- “Men do not roar. Women roar. Then…they hurl heavy objects and claw at you.” (Wesley then asks what Klingon men do. “He ducks a lot.”
- “You are fully dilated to 10 cms. You may now give birth.”
- “Sir, I protest. I am not a merry man!”
- “If winning is not important, why keep score?”
- Q: “What must I do to convince you people!?”, Worf: “Die.”
- “Assimilate this!”
- “If you were any other man I’d kill you where you stand!”
- “Perhaps today is a good day to die!”
- “Romulan ale should be illegal.”
- “Your ambush would be more successful if you bathed more often.”
