"Who mourns for Andonias?"

“Human flesh against human flesh. We’re the same. We share the same history, the same heritage, the same lives. We’re tied together beyond any untying. Man or woman, it makes no difference. We’re human. We couldn’t escape from each other if we wanted to. That’s how you do it, Lieutenant. By remembering who and what you are. A bit of flesh and blood afloat in a universe without end. The only thing that’s truly yours is the rest of humanity. That’s where our duty lies.”
-James T. Kirk (”Who Mourns For Adonias?”)

I am hurt by your tears but I see they must fall. I cannot take your sorrow away. But grieve not for my loss, For the choice was my own, And we must all face death in our own way. So farewell, my t’hy’la, my captain, Though I shall never be far from your side. I will remember and cherish the friendship That I always found there in your eyes.
