"Beep beep beep beep" is a born classic, but I'm impartial to "Your design* is not complete when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take out." It's elegant and I like to apply that to many things, mostly writing.
* I think it was design.
Other rather memorable ones:
"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. "
(Set him on fire, and he is warm for the rest of his life.)
"All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players: They have their exits and entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts."
Cake and grief counseling will be available at the conclusion of the test. Thank you for helping us help you help us all!

I wish they'd do what they did in SMAC and all say the source of the quote. Alas..
“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV)
Yup, gotta give it to Firaxis - Mr. Nimoy + the choice of quotes was a masterstroke. Every single quote is perfectly chosen, and some of them are very ingenious and are stuff that you wouldn't have expected to be referring to some tech or game concept, even if you have known the quote before - yet fit exremely well when you think about it.
The problem with leadership is inevitably: Who will play God?

Ok, they're not Nimoy quotes, factually.
They're quotes from people spoken by Nimoy.
I think it comes with a source most of the time btw.
I think everybody here knows it. I think.

Aha! Was it Spock time travelling around and planting those quotes throughout history to give his alter-ego actor identity the opportunity to deliver them? Eh? Eh?
My favourite Nimoy quote is "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one" but I'm not sure I heard that in this game
To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection.
