It's the economy, stupid
- Bill Clinton (on hunting)
Doh!
- Homer Simpson (on no loot)
My child, if sinners entice you,
turn your back on them!
They may say, “Come and join us.
Let’s hide and kill someone!
Just for fun, let’s ambush the innocent!
Let’s swallow them alive, like the grave;
let’s swallow them whole, like those who go down to the pit of death.
Think of the great things we’ll get!
We’ll fill our houses with all the stuff we take.
Come, throw in your lot with us;
we’ll all share the loot
- The Bible, Proverbs 1:10-14 (on PVP in lootable zones)
..and Confucius has a whole bunch of them, I bet he played Entropia:
- It is better to play than do nothing
(Confucius' suggestion as slogan for EU, which was sadly rejected by MA)
- No matter how busy you may think you are, you must find time for reading, or surrender yourself to self-chosen ignorance.
(use the ressources on EF, entropedia etc.)
- Ability will never catch up with the demand for it.
(Confucius is bitching about the high markup on skill chips)
- Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.
(Confucius advices you not to whine so much every time there's a new VU)
- Study the past, if you would divine the future.
(simple advice to miners)
- Never give a sword to a man who can't dance.
(when taking on disciples, don't give them weapons before they learned the basics of the interface, as minimum the dancing emotes)
- If you shoot for the stars and hit the moon, it's OK. But you've got to shoot for something. A lot of people don't even shoot.
(I think Confucius dislikes melee weapons)
