I only know him from his whimsical singing!

Did you know he took over the lead in EQUUS? It went from Anthony Hopkins to Richard Burton to Mr. Spock himself!

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

I lusted after First Officer Spock just like that poor blonde nurse with her unrequited love. except I was 8 yrs old.

The original airing of Amok Time made me feel strange, dirty, animal feelings.

I saw Nimoy as Dr. Dysart. He was quite good, although he kept his hands in the pockets of the suit jacket he was wearing. I guess it was connected to the character.
