I don’t know who writes your history books, but you people have some pretty funny ideas about me. You all look at me like I’m some kind of saint or visionary. You wanna know what my vision is? Dollar signs. Money. To be able to retire to some tropical island filled with naked women. You think I built this ship to usher in a new era for humanity? I don’t even like to fly! I take trains! — Zefram Cochrane, Star Trek: First Contact
