h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Type your philosophical phrase and put your name.

This is probably a bit too much having read the others here but hey I used to write this stuff and send it out over e-mail so I thought I'd contribute;

Those who look back at the past are fools, because they will always wonder how things would have been if they done something differently. Those who look to the future are fools, for they will only fill their lives with fear of what will happen tomorrow. Those who are truly wise look to the present, as they will then make sure they have no need to look back into the past and they will make sure that they will always be shaping their path for the future.

This one goes after the knowledge is power one of yours...

If information is knowledge and knowledge is power then information is power. However we are all taught that with power comes great responsibility. Therefore if you gain information which is a secret or being kept quiet it is your responsibility to keep it so, for you can use information rashly holding your power over others or you can use it wisely and use it when you have to. The latter of the two is best whatever it may seem as more people will trust you if you don't tell everyone what you know.

Oh I see...*that* sort of philosophical phrase, right...

Hmmm. lemme think...how about this little treatise on nothingness and the nature of infinity?:

"Heaven and earth are like a pair of bellows - they are empty, and yet they can never be exhausted."

Life is like a jam donut, except without the jam... And without the donut.

The world is divided between doers, and thinkers. It is the doers that get things done while the thinkers or the thinkers are too busy having a conference to be bothered to do anything.

Electronics is the art of commanding electrons and electromagnetic waves to do what you want them to do. It is an art because electrons and waves tend to not obey. Otherwise it would be a science.
