MISQUOTES (cont'd):

• Diehard Trekkies will know that Captain James T. Kirk never said, “Beam me up, Scotty!” in any of the 80 episodes of the original “Star Trek” series, which aired from 1966 to 1969. The closest Captain Kirk came to that phrase was in the 1968 episode “Gamesters of Triskelion,” when he exclaimed, “Beam us up, Mr. Scott!” The animated “Star Trek” series, which ran for two seasons in 1973 – 1974, did have the line, “Beam us up, Scotty!” and the 1986 movie “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home included, “Scotty, beam me up.” The original series’ Mr. Scott was played by actor James Doohan, who entitled his 1996 biography Beam Me Up, Scotty! • The well-known phrase “A rose by any other name smells just as sweet” has its origins in Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet.” But the actual quote reads, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other word would smell as sweet.” • Speaking of Shakespeare, when we see images of witches stirring a cauldron, the phrase “Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble” comes to mind. The correct phrase, from Act 4, Scene 1 of “Macbeth,” is actually “Double, double, toil and trouble.” Fans of the rock group Led Zeppelin will recognize the words in the first verse of “Stairway to Heaven”, “There’s a lady who’s sure, all that glitters is gold.” The chorus in the Smash Mouth song “All Star” also includes the phrase “All that glitters is gold.” In actuality, this is another Shakespeare misquote that reads correctly, “All that glisters is not gold,” spoken by the Prince of Morocco in “The Merchant of Venice.”
