Summary
"As much as he likes to quantify and calculate avenues, risk, percentages and results, he is unaware of when exactly observation becomes cataloguing, when cataloguing becomes obsession. Observation is an expected element of living and working amongst humans."
At some point, Spock's observations of the Captain turn into something like obsession.

Summary
His mother did not think Spock understood loneliness for what it is, that he did not understand the way it creeps unbidden into a heart and splits like a wound. She did not think he felt its socketed mouth twisted open and yawning at the heart of him, hungry to be fed.

Summary
“So, why haven't you settled down with some lucky lady yet?” the interviewer asks.
Maybe it's the blinding set-lights, or the fact that he hasn't slept in thirty-five hours. But for some reason Kirk blurts, “Honestly, they all end up getting jealous of Spock.”- Language:
