More quotes by Leonard Nimoy
Where there is no emotion, there is no motive for violence.
Leonard Nimoy
The camera can capture thought in a way that's quite surprising and shocking. You can become very simple and minimal in your work and communicate a lot with just a finger or an eyebrow, or a look, or a glance.
Leonard Nimoy
Judging by the pollution content of the atmosphere, I believe we have arrived at the late twentieth century.
Leonard Nimoy
I have a Master's Degree in photography as a fine art, and I would call my work primarily conceptual. I don't carry cameras with me wherever I go. I get an idea of a subject matter I want to deal with and I pull out my cameras.
Leonard Nimoy
Years ago - in the 70s, for about a decade - I carried a camera every place I went. And I shot a lot of pictures that were still life and landscape, using available light.
Leonard Nimoy
Boston was a great city to grow up in, and it probably still is. We were surrounded by two very important elements: academia and the arts. I was surrounded by theater, music, dance, museums. And I learned how to sail on the Charles River. So I had a great childhood in Boston. It was wonderful.

Leonard Nimoy
Most of my images have been done in-studio, under very controlled lighting conditions. There have been a few that have shot in nature, but even then they were shot almost exclusively at night, and again, under controlled lighting conditions.
Leonard Nimoy
My dream concept is that I have a camera and I am trying to photograph what is essentially invisible. And every once in a while I get a glimpse of her and I grab that picture.
Leonard Nimoy
Which is probably the reason why I work exclusively in black and white... to highlight that contrast.
Leonard Nimoy
Curious how often you Humans manage to obtain that which you do not want.
Leonard Nimoy
I believe in goodness, mercy and charity. I believe in casting bread upon the waters.
Leonard Nimoy
Rocket ships are exciting but so are roses on a birthday.
Leonard Nimoy
I'm touched by the idea that when we do things that are useful and helpful - collecting these shards of spirituality - that we may be helping to bring about a healing.
Leonard Nimoy
Hello, I'm Leonard Nimoy. The following tale of alien encounters is true. By true I mean false. It's all lies. But they're entertaining lies and in the end, isn't that the truth? The answer is no.
Leonard Nimoy
That is the exploration that awaits you! Not mapping stars and studying nebula, but charting the unknown possibilities of existence.
Leonard Nimoy
Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end.
Leonard Nimoy
When you let me take I'm grateful. When you let me give I'm blessed.
Leonard Nimoy
For a period of time, I carried cameras with me wherever I went, and then I realized that my interest in photography was turning toward the conceptual. So I wasn't carrying around cameras shooting stuff, I was developing concepts about what I wanted to shoot. And then I'd get the camera angle and do the job
Leonard Nimoy
My memory of those places is better than my pictures. That's why I get much more satisfaction out of shooting thematic work that has to do with an idea that I'm searching for, or searching to express.
