And I think it safe to say, in his own language:
Mene sakhet ur seveh, Spock cha'Sarek.
RIP
It’s kind of ironic that this is the first time I have ever gotten emotional over a celebrity death. RIP Spock.
Not the first member of the original cast to go, certainly - but this one could break the Internet. Rest in Peace, Leonard.
Wow. The passing of a truly unique American icon. A sad day.
He’s dead, Jim.
For those who don't remember him as "Paris" in Mission: Impossible.
RIP Leonard. Well done.
I think I’ll watch “Amok Time” tonight.
A sad day for science fiction fans everywhere.
RIP.
RIP Leonard Nimoy.
Read part of this Shatner stealing Nimoy’s bicycle story and thought it was hilarious. Didn’t know there was a live version. Well worth the 5 and a half minutes;

Sad to hear. RIP Mr. Spoc
SPOCK: Don't grieve, Admiral, ...it is logical. The needs of the many ...outweigh
KIRK: ...the needs of the few.
SPOCK: Or the one. ... I never took the Kobayashi Maru test ...until now. What do you think of my solution?
KIRK: Spock!
SPOCK: I have been ...and always shall be ...your friend. ...Live long ...and prosper.
KIRK: No!
KIRK (OC): We are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honoured 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 that 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. SULU (OC): Honours, ...hup! (bagpipes play 'Amazing Grace' as the torpedo coffin is fired)
McCOY: He's really not dead. As long as we remember him.
KIRK: 'It's a far, far better thing I do than I have ever done before. ...A far better resting place that I go to than I have ever known'.
CAROL: Is that a poem?
KIRK: No, no. Something Spock was trying to tell me. On my birthday.
McCOY: You okay, Jim? How do you feel?
KIRK: Young. I feel young.
(the torpedo coffin lays in a clearing in the new, verdant forest on the Genesis planet)
Spock's Voice: Space, the final frontier. ...These are the continuing voyages of the Starship Enterprise. ...Her ongoing mission, to explore strange new worlds, ...to seek out new lifeforms and new civilisations. ...To boldly go where no man has gone before.
Katra:
The katra, or living spirit, was the essence of the Vulcan mind and could be transferred to another person moments before death.
What a perfect blend of actor and role. Nimoy was of Ukranian/Jewish exctraction, and had that asiatic look you’d sometimes see in Soviet leaders like Brezhnev. He frankly looked odd playing westerners and was often cast as a heavy. But Spock, with the ears and calm/placid demeanor fit him like a glove. Nobody looks as much like a Vulcan as Nimoy (save perhaps Mark Lenard, who played Spock’s father). R.I.P., Mr. Nimoy!
