Leonard (32 page)
The character of Spock has become woven into the fabric of American culture, a fact that Leonard loved and appreciated. He brought great joy to tens of millions of people around the world, who instantly recognize Spock's salute (seen here, based on a religious experience), his nerve pinch, his mind-meld, and his wish, spoken in every language, “Live long and prosper.”
This is the way I will always remember my friend, Leonard Nimoy.
