Fortune: 801 - 810 of 2171 from Freebsd Fortunes 6

Freebsd Fortunes 6:  801 of 2171

The minute a man is convinced that he is interesting, he isn't.
 
Freebsd Fortunes 6:  802 of 2171

The mirror sees the man as beautiful, the mirror loves the man; another
mirror sees the man as frightful and hates him; and it is always the same
being who produces the impressions.

The misnaming of fields of study is so common as to lead to what might be
general systems laws.  For example, Frank Harary once suggested the law that
any field that had the word "science" in its name was guaranteed thereby
not to be a science.  He would cite as examples Military Science, Library
Science, Political Science, Homemaking Science, Social Science, and Computer
Science.  Discuss the generality of this law, and possible reasons for its
predictive power.
                -- Gerald Weinberg, "An Introduction to General Systems
                   Thinking"

The Modelski Chain Rule:
1:      Look intently at the problem for several minutes.  Scratch your
        head at 20-30 second intervals.  Try solving the problem on your
        Hewlett-Packard.
2:      Failing this, look around at the class.  Select a particularly
        bright-looking individual.
3:      Procure a large chain.
4:      Walk over to the selected student and threaten to beat him severely
        with the chain unless he gives you the answer to the problem.
        Generally, he will.  It may also be a good idea to give him a sound
        thrashing anyway, just to show you mean business.

"The molars, I'm sure, will be all right, the molars can take care of
themselves," the old man said, no longer to me.  "But what will become
of the bicuspids?"
                -- The Old Man and his Bridge

The mome rath isn't born that could outgrabe me.

The moon is made of green cheese.

The Moral Majority is neither.
 
Freebsd Fortunes 6:  810 of 2171

The more complex the mind, the greater
the need for the simplicity of play.
