Maxims ~ May 1998


Here’s a disgusting lesson I still can’t quite stomach:

An apparent academic axiom:

The best defense against one’s own incompetence is to accuse someone else of it first.

To the Good Ole Boys of the Stagnant Quo
Here’s a lesson for you:


The boldest offense is to commit to action
To contribute positively to a collective cause
To create and compliment and cultivate

Ultimately it is more subversive
Than sniping

The noblest comment
Is to admit when you don’t know
Instead of filling space
With self-righteous rhetoric
And to learn from history
Instead of rewriting it.

~ me (Whaddo Iknow)

...and that's it.
