Whales Weep Not! was a poem written by D.H. Lawrence.

In 1986, James T. Kirk quoted the poem's opening lines, "They say the sea is cold, but the sea contains the hottest blood of all," to Gillian Taylor because she loved whales. (TOS movie: The Voyage Home)

Later that year, Detective Chizum found the entire poem quoted on the wall of Taylor's apartment. (TOS - Strange New Worlds VI short story: "Whales Weep Not")
