Shell to DOS... Come in DOS, do you copy? Shell to DOS...

Shell to DOS... Come in DOS, do you copy? Shell to DOS...

Summary

This quote is a humorous play on the concept of computer operating systems communicating with each other. It suggests that a "shell" (referring to a command-line interface) is trying to establish a connection with "DOS" (short for Disk Operating System), which was a popular operating system used in early personal computers. The line humorously presents the interaction as if it were a radio communication between two individuals.

I have frequently seen people become neurotic when they content themselves with inadequate or wrong answers to the questions of life. They seek position, marriage, reputation, outward success of money, and remain unhappy and neurotic even when they have attained what they were seeking. Such people are usually confined within too narrow a spiritual horizon. Their life has not sufficient content, sufficient meaning. If they are enabled to develop into more spacious personalities, the neurosis generally disappears.

Truth is the trial of itself And needs no other touch, And purer than the purest gold, Refine it ne'er so much.

The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, river

The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers and cities; but to know someone here and there who thinks and feels with us, and though distant, is close to us in spirit - this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden

You can tell when a Hollywood historical film was made by looking at the eye makeup of their leading ladies, and you can tell the date of an old science fiction novel by every word on the page. Nothing dates harder and faster and more strangely than the future.

The family is an early expedient and in many ways irrational

The family is an early expedient and in many ways irrational. If the race had developed a special sexless class to be nurses, pedagogues, and slaves, like the workers among ants and bees, then the family would have been unnecessary. Such a division of labor would doubtless have involved evils of its own, but it would have obviated some drags and vexations proper to the family.

I'm sad to see the passing of the great drug warriors. I certainly did my part in that battle and I don't regret any of it.

Christ didn't waste his time trying to change the social order. Christ spent all his time fighting sin. Therefore it behooves the witnesses of Christ to say that we do not have to abolish capitalism and establish socialism or communism, that sin can flourish under those systems as well. Christianity is not opposed to any social order, but to sin.

I find friendship to be like wine, raw when new, ripened with age, the true old man's milk and restorative cordial.

I refused to believe that love could take any other form than mine: I measured love by the extent of my jealousy, and by that standard of course she could not love me at all.

Today's consumers are eager to become loyal fans of companies that respect purposeful capitalism. They are not opposed to companies making a profit indeed, they may even be investors in these companies - but at the core, they want more empathic, enlightened corporations that seek a balance between profit and purpose.
