Well, how could i disagree? In the Learning from Complexity pack i quote
extensively from Kelly, and reprint the 9 laws of god! For anyone who
wants to hear, there is much wisdom on every page of kelly's book, as
there is in the Tao de Ching [and the modern rewrite the tao of
leadership].

Basho is cool too. I like the ones featuring frogs the best. Plop! :-)
