Adrian Lamo Quotes

I am not a wishing well with legs. (Paraphrasing Babylon 5's Londo Mollari, repeately, when asked to perform hacking functions for strangers.)

The universe doesn't waste anything. Sometimes, we just don't have standing to see how events or experiences are important.

I wish all those involved in the Wikileaks matter in the spirit of truth (rather than as a cheap opportunity to screw with a .gov they dislike) the very best.

Treat it gently. (From an open letter.)
