Master Foo and the Nervous Novice
There was a novice who learned much at the Master's feet, but felt something to be missing. After meditating on his doubts for some time, he found the courage to approach Master Foo about his problem.
βMaster Foo,β he asked βwhy do Unix users not employ antivirus programs? And defragmentors? And malware cleaners?β
Master Foo smiled, and said βWhen your house is well constructed, there is no need to add pillars to keep the roof in place.β
The novice replied βWould it not be better to use these things anyway, just to be certain?β
Master Foo reached for a nearby ball of string, and began wrapping it around the novice's feet.
βWhat are you doing?β the novice asked in surprise.
Master Foo replied simply: βTying your shoes.β
Upon hearing this, the novice was enlightened.
