R.I.P Leonard Nimoy

A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP

Quote:
US actor Leonard Nimoy, who played Mr Spock in the cult sci-fi series Star Trek, has died at the age of 83 in Los Angeles, his family has said.
His son, Adam, said he died of end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease on Friday morning.
Nimoy had a long career as both an actor and director.
However he was best known for his portrayal of the half-human, half-Vulcan character in both the TV franchise and series of films.

Live long and prosper Mr Spock... You will be missed by all those who feel the conflict between logic, and the other thing...

Well, bugger.

Once you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth

Sure you won't change your mind?
Is there something wrong with the one I have?

Another sign my world is disappearing.
I feel guilty to still be here.
This news makes me so very sad.
His character hinted at how humans could be...for the better.

STOS was one of the few programs that we were allowed to watch as kids. I always thought Nimoy / Spock was the best character and still do.
RIP
