:41:01
I hope I met death
with my eyes wide open.
:41:07
Your fierce devotion
comes from within.
:41:10
It can't be diminished.
:41:11
From you, I have learned to strive
for excellence,...
:41:17
..no matter what the personal cost.
:41:23
I'm sorry I won't be able
to see you grow
:41:26
into the exceptional man
you'll become.
:41:29
But your kindness and innocence
are ageless.
:41:39
In those moments
I felt the most despair,
:41:43
you took my hand and helped me
to see things differently.
:41:47
You taught me
to look beyond the moment.
:41:51
My friend, Data, you see things
with the wonder of a child.
:41:57
And that makes you more human
than any of us.
:42:09
I wish I could say
you've been like a father to me.
:42:14
But I've never had one,
so I don't know what it feels like.
:42:19
But if there was someone in this
universe I could choose to be like,
:42:25
someone who I would want
to make proud ofme,...
:42:31
..it's you.
:42:34
You who have the heart of an
explorer and the soul of a poet.
:42:42
So, you'll understand when I say,...
:42:45
..death is that state in which one
exists only in the memory of others.
:42:53
Which is why it is not an end.
:42:58
No goodbyes.
