Quote of the Day

It's also the principle that lies behind all of Oriental martial arts. You don't try to stop your opponent, you let him come at you-and then give him a tap in just the right direction as he rushes by. The idea is to observe, to act courageously, and to pick your timing extremely well.

- M. Mitchell Waldrop, Complexity: The Emerging Science at the Edge of Order and Chaos
