"It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life." — Captain Jean-Luc Picard

"Just because someone stumbles and loses their way doesn’t mean they're lost forever." — Professor Charles Xavier

I know he was getting up there in age and lived a full life, but this is still beyond depressing. I'll definitely rewatch some TNG and X-Men films to honor him. RIP to a legend.

2 this week? This is bullshit. 😭

This one hurts. My childhood was before bed watching mash and the next gen. Then I learned to love him as professor X and in family guy

Noooooooooooooo

Damn. RIP to a legend.

This has been a terrible year for losing beloved celebrities

The very first thing I ever heard about X-Men, the first time I ever heard that title used, was one afternoon when I’d been doing some ADR for [Superman director] Richard Donner, on a movie of his that I had been in. I got a note to call in at Lauren Shuler Donner’s office – that’s his wife, the producer. I walked in the door, Lauren picked something up from her desk and held it up. And I looked at it, and I said, “What am I doing on the front of a comic book?” And she said, “Exactly.”

We couldn't have asked for a better Charles Xavier. Truly a legend.
