Security requires a particular mindset. Security professionals — at least the good ones — see the world differently. They can’t walk into a store without noticing how they might shoplift. They can’t use a computer without wondering about the security vulnerabilities. They can’t vote without trying to figure out how to vote twice. They just can’t help it.
Schneier on Security: The Security Mindset
I will never betray my goon dock friends
We will stick together until the whole world ends
Through heaven and hell, and nuclear war
Good pals like us, will stick like tar
In the city, or the country, or the forest, or the boonies
I am proudly declared a fellow Goony.
-The Goonies Oath
If you see the Buddha, kill the Buddha
The easiest way to never forget,
is to have nothing to remember
delegate to other, to technology.

Hell is other people at breakfast.
