To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
If you think you can do it, you can.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
I work on OpenBSD fulltime, as the project leader. I set some directions, increase communication between the developers, and try to be involved in nearly every aspect of the base system.
