Thanks to everybody for their entries, but the winner has to be Geraldo, who told us the tale of this little pearl of wisdom:

"Fix the things that are fucked. Don't fuck the things that are fixed!"

Not only was it good, succinct advice that could be carried across a number of different areas of life, but - perhaps more importantly - it was also sufficiently sweary.

A copy of Andy Hertzfeld's history of the Macintosh, Revolution in the Valley, will be winging its way to him shortly.
