Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Wherever you are - be all there.
After a storm comes a calm.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Diaspora starts about a thousand years from now. Most of human civilisation has moved inside computers essentially, a major branch of our descendants consists of conscious software.
