True story.
Happy Birthday Leonard Nimoy (Mar 26, 1931 – Feb 27, 2015).
A few memorable quotes, as spoken by Spock, which are very relevant in these trying times of “illogic and foolish emotions” in MAGA world -

Without followers, evil cannot spread.
When there is no emotion, there is no motive for violence.
“Live long and prosper.”
