"Prudence keeps life safe, but does not often make it happy. " -- Samuel Johnson

I've been mulling over an idea for a commercial book for some time, and its shape is becoming clearer. Though it's related to my work, I've decided to work on it evenings so as not to distract from the consulting I'm doing right now.

I love the Samuel Johnson quote, since it speaks directly to my appetite for keeping more than one iron in the fire at all times.
