The following quote is from a private memo from Leonard Nimoy to Gene Roddenberry concerning what Nimoy saw as Spock's diminishing role in the series. The memo is being actioned next Thursday along with several other items of memorabilia from the original series. (The auction will be in Beverly Hills, but absentee bids may be placed through eBay.)
"Please Gene, let Captain Kirk be a giant among men, let him be the best damned Captain in the fleet, let him be the best combat officer in the fleet, let him be the greatest lover in the fleet, let him be capable of emerging unscathed from a brawl with five men twice his size, but above all let him be a LEADER, which to me means letting your subordinates keep their balls."
