Excerpts

Überleben. Sozialkontakte pflegen. Spaß haben. Das ist der Lauf der Dinge. Und deshalb wählten wir "Just for Fun" als Titel dieses Buches. Weil alles, war wir tun, letztlich unserer eigenen Unterhaltung zu dienen scheint. Jedenfalls wenn wir die Chance erhalten haben, so weit zu kommen.
Page 262, added by Andreas Perstinger.

Kurze Zusammenfassung von Torvalds' Lebensphilosophie.
