More quotes by Leonard Nimoy
Which is probably the reason why I work exclusively in black and white... to highlight that contrast.
Leonard Nimoy
I've noticed that about your people, Doctor. You find it easier to understand the death of one than the death of a million. You speak about the objective hardness of the Vulcan heart, yet how little room there seems to be in yours.
Leonard Nimoy
The means of many outweigh the means of the few or one.
Leonard Nimoy
Insufficient facts always invite danger.
Leonard Nimoy
I'm attracted to images that come from a personal exploration of a subject matter. When they have a personal stamp to them, then I think it becomes identifiable.
Leonard Nimoy
The miracle is this: the more we share the more we have.
Leonard Nimoy
I use a computer. I don't know if that qualifies me as a techie, but I'm pretty good on the computer.
Leonard Nimoy
That is the exploration that awaits you! Not mapping stars and studying nebula, but charting the unknown possibilities of existence.
Leonard Nimoy
Rocket ships are exciting but so are roses on a birthday.
Leonard Nimoy
When you let me take I'm grateful. When you let me give I'm blessed.
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
Bullying is the use of force, threat, or coercion to abuse, intimidate, or aggressively impose domination over others. Help a friend.
Leonard Nimoy
The book tour has been really interesting and very gratifying. I have not book toured before. I've never had quite as much pleasure, as much satisfaction.
Leonard Nimoy
What I'm exploring right now is the subject of my own mortality, It's an area that I'm curious about, and I'm researching it to see if there's a photographic essay in it for me. If images don't start to come, I'll go to something else.
Leonard Nimoy
That's the most difficult issue for me - to find a subject that holds my interest long enough that I'm prepared to go to work and spend the time and energy to shoot the subject.
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
I'm not an equipment nut. I tend to use whatever's at hand. I have several cameras, of course, but I'm not emotional about any of them
Leonard Nimoy
I also do my own processing, so it means a big commitment in lab time.
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
My wife and I are affiliated with a temple here in Los Angeles. We feel very close to the congregation and to the rabbi, who happens to be my wife's cousin and who I admire greatly. I talk to him regularly but I consider myself more spiritual than religious.
