Logic is the beginning of wisdom, Valeris, not the end.

Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
Spock reminds Valeris that sound reasoning is a starting point, rather than a complete guide to judgement. The line leaves room for compassion, experience and doubt beyond a neat chain of deductions. It comes from The Undiscovered Country, where trust and peace are under pressure.
