Bright and warm, a lowly fire
Lost within this deep dark mire
Slowly, gently, softly it burns
While raging winds take a turn
Hail and Ice, the sky laments
God's will, was scorned and bent
and to think, it began with a flint

"I am the bone of my sword.
Steel is my body, and fire is my blood.
I have created over a thousand blades.
Unknown to death.
Nor known to life.
Have withstood pain to create many weapons.
Yet, those hands will never hold anything.
So as I pray, 'Unlimited Blade Works'."

Morituri nolumus mori. - Terry Pratchett.
If a program can't rewrite it's own code, what good is it? - Mel Kaye, as written by Ed Nathers.
Men flow into life, and ebb into death.
Some are filled with life;
Some are empty with death;
Some hold fast to life, and thereby perish,
For life is an abstraction.
Those who are filled with life
Need not fear tigers and rhinos in the wilds,
Nor wear armour and shields in battle;
The rhinoceros finds no place in them for its horn,
The tiger no place for its claw,
The soldier no place for a weapon,
For death finds no place in them.
-Lao Tzu
I have no way, and therefore want no eyes;
I stumbled when I saw: full oft 'tis seen,
Our means secure us, and our mere defects
Prove our commodities.
-Shakespeare, King Lear [ This Message was edited by: Sardaukar on 2009-03-04 02:21 ]

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"
He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Don't quit
When thing's go wrong. as thay sometimes will,
when the road your traveling seems all up hill,
when the funds are low and the debts are high,
and you want to smile but you have to sigh,
when care is pressing you down a bit,
rest if you must,but don't ever quit.
Life's race is full of twists and turns,
as everyone of us finally learns.
and many a failure turns about,
when he might have won,had he stuck it out.
Don't give up,though the pace seems slow;
you may succeed, if you give it a go.
Success is failure,turned inside out,
the silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
you can never tell how the race will end;
so stay the course when you're hardest hit;
it's when things seem worse that you must not quit.
