Leonard Nimoy dead

Bold Ruler : Mod : 2/27/2015 12:18 pm
Leonard Nimoy, the sonorous, gaunt-faced actor who won a worshipful global following as Mr. Spock, the resolutely logical human-alien first officer of the Starship Enterprise in the television and movie juggernaut “Star Trek,” died on Friday morning at his home in the Bel Air section of Los Angeles. He was 83.

Very sad day. I appreciated his sense of humor which came out in the movies he directed.

when Matt Decker died in "The Doomsday Machine". Clearly he knew the right thing to say in these instances.


Sad day. Nimoy's Spock was a gamechanger

that yesterday out of nowhere I had a thought of him dying. Where did that come from? Spooky.

RIP Leonard. I enjoyed your work as Spock and in other roles too.
He's been in the news for having been ill and hospitalized.
Bummer. Goodnight, funnyman.

I will spend a few minutes thinking about his achievements and then go on with my daily routine.

Though personally I'm not sad, I am sure his friends and family are. Acknowledged.

Can't say I'll miss him. I didn't know him and don't ever think about him. Him dying probably won't increase either likelihood.

Thanks for the info.


Guess what - a lot fewer people will care about your death.

But maybe someone will make light of it.
More sorry to hear of his death than of many others I would

expect to miss more. Star Trek has just been a constant in my life since I watched the original first run TV broadcasts. I guess he won't be a guest star in any future Star Trek films.

Some of my favorite quotes:

"They do not sow, nor do they reap, yet they seem to eat a great deal." The Trouble with Tribbles

Dr. McCoy: "You deliberately stopped me, Jim. I could have saved her. Do you know what you just did?

Spock: He knows, Doctor. He knows."

"Captain, you're asking me to work with equipment which is hardly very far ahead of stone knives and bearskins."

City on the Edge of Forever


"It may be the last action you'll ever take, Mister Spock, but it was all human."
"Totally illogical. There was no chance."
"That's exactly what I mean."

Capt. Kirk: "You're not going to admit that for the first time in your life you committed a purely human, emotional act?"

Spock: "No, sir."
Capt. Kirk: "Mr. Spock, you're a stubborn man."
Spock: "Yes, sir."

The Galileo Seven

A decade ago I would have been able to roll off a dozen favorite quotes right away. No more.
