So..I've been away this weekend. Getting a year older an all that jazz..an didn't get to post this when I herd the news.

Some of us grew up with him, some of us refound our youth with Spock an Kirk, others learned of them many years later an got to in the adventures...in the end..most of us saw his work in some form or another an touched people in various degrees. Whether the acting, the quotes, or just the silly pointy ears.

So in Honor of Leonard Nimoy..today's quotes are from him, or Spock.

Leonard Nimoy 1931 - 2015

My folks came to U.S. as immigrants, aliens, and became citizens. I was born in Boston, a citizen, went to Hollywood and became an alien.

You proceed from a false assumption: I have no ego to bruise.

Spock is definitely one of my best friends. When I put on those ears, it's not like just another day. When I become Spock, that day becomes something special.

I am not Spock.

“May I say that I have not thoroughly enjoyed serving with humans? I find their illogic and foolish emotions a constant irritant.”

“The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.”

Sirscrapalot - I think it's my adventure, my trip, my journey, and I guess my attitude is, let the chips fall where they may. - Leonard Nimoy aka Spock. R.I.P.

Because I feel the need to ad to Sirs. "Greatness". I donate a quote

There are trivial truths and the great truths.
The opposite of a trivial truth is plainly false.
The opposite of a great truth is also true.
Niels Bohr

[Sirscrapalot]

There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age. - Sophia Loren

Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. - Mark Twain

You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old. - George Burns

Men are like wine - some turn to vinegar, but the best improve with age. - Pope John XXIII ( Hey! My first quote from a pope..I think. )

True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country. - Kurt Vonnegut

Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art. - Stanislaw Jerzy Lec

Sirscrapalot - Age appears to be best in four things; old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read. - Francis Bacon

One of my favorite Authors of the Fantasy Genre.

Terry Pratchett 1948-2015 RIP

Sometimes it is better to light a flamethrower than curse the darkness.

Only in our dreams are we free. The rest of the time we need wages.

Fantasy is an exercise bicycle for the mind. It might not take you anywhere, but it tones up the muscles that can. Of course, I could be wrong.

He was the sort of person who stood on mountaintops during thunderstorms in wet copper armour shouting 'All the Gods are bastards.'

Personally, I think the best motto for an educational establishment is: 'Or Would You Rather Be a Mule?'

Evolution was far more thrilling to me than the biblical account. Who would not rather be a rising ape than a falling angel? To my juvenile eyes, Darwin was proved true every day. It doesn't take much to make us flip back into monkeys again.

I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it.

You can't build a plot out of jokes. You need tragic relief. And you need to let people know that when a lot of frightened people are running around with edged weaponry, there are deaths. Stupid deaths, usually. I'm not writing 'The A-Team' - if there's a fight going on, people will get hurt. Not letting this happen would be a betrayal.

Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.


Most gods throw dice, but Fate plays chess, and you don't find out til too late that he's been playing with two queens all along.

The ideal death, I think, is what was the ideal Victorian death, you know, with your grandchildren around you, a bit of sobbing. And you say goodbye to your loved ones, making certain that one of them has been left behind to look after the shop.

Terry Pratchett 1948 to 2015 R.I.P.

Thanks for the adventures.



Sirscrapalot - They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it's not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance. - Terry Pratchett 1948 - 2015 R.I.P.

Wisdom outweighs any wealth. - Sophocles

People everywhere confuse what they read in newspapers with news.- A. J. Liebling

An Englishman teaching an American about food is like the blind leading the one-eyed. - A.J. Liebling

Sirscrapalot - It is impossible to struggle for civil rights, equal rights for blacks, without including whites. Because equal rights, fair play, justice, are all like the air: we all have it, or none of us has it. That is the truth of it. - Maya Angelou
