Freebsd Fortunes 5

Our little systems have their day;
They have their day and cease to be;
They are but broken lights of thee.
                -- Tennyson

Our OS who art in CPU, UNIX be thy name.
Thy programs run, thy syscalls done,
In kernel as it is in user.

Our parents were of Midwestern stock and very strict.  They didn't want us
to grow up to be spoiled and rich.  If we left our tennis racquets in the
rain, we were punished.
                -- Nancy Ellis (George Bush's sister), in the New Republic

Our policy is, when in doubt, do the right thing.
                -- Roy L. Ash, ex-president, Litton Industries

Our problems are so serious that the best
way to talk about them is lightheartedly.

Our sires' age was worse that our grandsires'.
We their sons are more worthless than they:
so in our turn we shall give the world a progeny yet more corrupt.
                -- Quintus Horatius Flaccus (Horace)

Our swords shall play the orators for us.
                -- Christopher Marlowe

Our universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding,
In all of the directions it can whiz;
As fast as it can go, that's the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth;
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere out in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth!
                -- Monty Python

Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants.
                -- General Omar N. Bradley

Ours is a world where people don't know what they
want and are willing to go through hell to get it.
