the handbook (matthew good/ black market surgury, 1999)
rule 1: EVERYBODY GETS A SHIT KICKING
Maybe just to ensure that you dont spend the rest of your life thinking youre better than those who get shit kicked every day of theirs.

rule 2 : MORALITY EXTENDS NO FURTHER THAN ACCEPTABILITY
You will go as far as youre willing to go. Such distances have never been equal between us. One man's evil is another man's amusement park.

rule 3: IGNORANCE BELITTLES THOSE AROUND YOU MORE THAN IT DOES YOURSELF
Ignorance and the Ebola virus are comparable in three respects:
1) they're both invisible
2) they're both infectious
3) and they both kill

rule 4: INFINITY IS UNIMAGINABLE. SO IMAGINE REDUCTION.
If heaven can be found in the sky's reflection off of calm waters then its a fucking shame that its too polluted to swim in.

rule 5: PRISONS DO NOT EXIST WITHOUT CAPITULATION
Between the bars there is nothing. And if you look close enough you'll realize that there is always more nothing than bars.

rule 6: TIME IS GREATER THAN SUFFERING
Those that we pity in our time will pity us in another.

rule 7: POWER BEGETS FOOLS. FOOLS BEGET POWER.
Thinking that one can control that which cannot be controlled attracts fools like a magnet. Enough so that, in a short period of time, the epicenter becomes an institution of them.

rule 8: DEATH IS THE WORKING CLASS'S LUXURY
Some people take vacations. Others spend their lives working toward a prolonged leave of absence.

rule 9: TOMORROW IS THE CAUSE OF TODAYS NOTHING
The promises of tomorrow reduce the chances of today.

rule 10: WE DO NOT EXIST
In comparison to spending your entire life wondering why you exist in the first place.

rule 11: MYTHS ARE NOTHING MORE THAN EASY TRUTHS FOR IDIOTS (footnote; the 'power of myth' IS a good read)
The need to offer easy answers to the general populace only reflects its inability to think for itself.

rule 12: ASSUME ONLY THAT YOU KNOW NOTHING. WITHIN SILENCES YOU WILL LEARN WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW.
The difference between knowing and assuming is vast. To assume is to fail miserably at acting intelligent enough to know when to keep your mouth shut.

rule 13: THE PAST IS A MINDFIELD. SO FOLLOW ONLY THOSE FOOTSTEPS THAT DO NOT END AT THE EDGE OF LARGE HOLES.
To ignore the past is to prolonge our mistakes of it.

rule 14: THE WORLD IS NOT YOUR OYSTER.
Prying it open ruins your chances of putting it back.

rule 15: NO ONE REMEMBERS WHO YOU WEREN'T. JUST WHO YOU WERE.
The realization of your true self far outweighs the consequences of unpopularity. - skedache , posted 07/20/06
