^^^^^ I used a segment of that scene often in the Steve Nash debate. "The needs of the many out weigh the needs of the few or the one." RIP Spock.

We are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honored dead. And yet it should be noted that in the midst of our sorrow, this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise of a new world; a world that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel this sacrifice a vain or empty one, and we will not debate his profound wisdom at these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this: of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most... human.

He's not really dead. As long as we remember him.

Devastating. Nimoy has long surpassed his original Trekkie fan base and became a true pop culture icon. RIP.

I find my emotional reaction to Nimoy's death illogical.

RIP good sir.
