“From a child you can learn three things: be merry for no reason; never waste a moment’s time; and demand what you want in a loud voice.”
“And from a thief you can learn seven things: do your work in secret; if you do not complete a task one night, return to it the next; love your co-workers; risk your life to achieve your goal; be ready to exchange all that you have for even the smallest gain; be willing to endure physical hardship; and be devoted to your work and give no thought to doing anything else.”
