Fortune: 392 - 401 of 402 from Linux Wisdom

Linux Wisdom:  392 of 402

You climb to reach the summit, but once there, discover that all roads
lead down.
                -- Stanislaw Lem, "The Cyberiad"
 
Linux Wisdom:  393 of 402

You have all eternity to be cautious in when you're dead.
                -- Lois Platford
 
Linux Wisdom:  394 of 402

        "You mean, if you allow the master to be uncivil, to treat you
any old way he likes, and to insult your dignity, then he may deem you
fit to hear his view of things?"
        "Quite the contrary.  You must defend your integrity, assuming
you have integrity to defend.  But you must defend it nobly, not by
imitating his own low behavior.  If you are gentle where he is rough,
if you are polite where he is uncouth, then he will recognize you as
potentially worthy.  If he does not, then he is not a master, after all,
and you may feel free to kick his ass."
                -- Tom Robbins, "Jitterbug Perfume"
 
Linux Wisdom:  396 of 402

You will always find something in the last place you look.
 
Linux Wisdom:  397 of 402

"You would do well not to imagine profundity," he said.  "Anything that seems
of momentous occasion should be dwelt upon as though it were of slight note.
Conversely, trivialities must be attended to with the greatest of care.
Because death is momentous, give it no thought; because victory is important,
give it no thought; because the method of achievement and discovery is less
momentous than the effect, dwell always upon the method.  You will strengthen
yourself in this way."
                -- Jessica Salmonson, "The Swordswoman"
 
Linux Wisdom:  398 of 402

Your happiness is intertwined with your outlook on life.
 
Linux Wisdom:  399 of 402

Your mind understands what you have been taught; your heart, what is true.
 
Linux Wisdom:  400 of 402

Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself.  Being
true to anyone else or anything else is not only impossible, but the
mark of a fake messiah.  The simplest questions are the most profound.
Where were you born?  Where is your home?  Where are you going?  What
are you doing?  Think about these once in awhile and watch your answers
change.
                -- Messiah's Handbook : Reminders for the Advanced Soul
 
Linux Wisdom:  401 of 402

Your picture of the world often changes just before you get it into focus.
