Ooit'n Normaal Mens Ontmoet? En..., Beviel't? (Ever met a normal person? So... Did you like it?) Ducunt volentem fata, nolentem trahunt (The Fates guide those who go willingly; all others, they drag.) Better isn't always better, but better is always different. -- Rob Kolstad When I get a little money, I buy books; and if any is left, I buy food and clothes. -- Erasmus But yield who will to their separation My object in living is to unite My avocation and my vocation As my two eyes make one in sight. Only where love and need are one, And the work is play for mortal stakes, Is the deed ever really done For Heaven and the future's sakes. -- Robert Frost Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives. -- William A. Foster The gods, too, are fond of a joke. -- Aristotle Three Prayers to Bree Amal Goddess of Keepers of Disorderly Houses May These Events Not Involve Thy Servant. May These Events Not Cost Thy Servant Money. May These Events Leave No Trace of Themselves in Thy Servant's Memory. -- from the Liavek shared world stories, found in "Casting Fortune" by John M. Ford
