"You can't appreciate Shakespeare until you've read him in the original Klingon."
- General Chang (Star Trek VI)
This is cinematic history. It has become a catch phrase that has spread well beyond the film. This is partly because it is hilarious, and partly due to the debate over the actually author of the works of Shakespeare.
Some scholars argue that William Shakespeare could not have actually written all of the plays attributed to him. Some of it is quite compelling as well. There are a lot of interesting theories out there, this one was so out there and hilarious that I think it will remain a classic moment in film for quite some time.
