Iz take smo snovi kot sanje (We are made from the matter as dreams are).

??? That title sounds remarkably like Shakespeare translated into another language and back into english:

We are such stuff as dreams are made on; and our little life is rounded with a sleep.

-- The Tempest Act 4, Scene 1

Yes, indeed. I guess prof. Strnad meant Shakespeare himself. I wrote the title from my memory and I should check this. It is nice someone had noticed this. And further more I would like to thank you Malcolm for correcting my silly mistakes. I should refresh my knowledge of the English irregular verbs very soon. Best regard. -- XJamRastafire 05:11 Jul 25, 2002 (PDT) (1st ed)

I moved the following paragraph here:

Let us hear one enthusiastic Linux user about professor Strnad:

"Ni ravno ideja, kakrsno sem pricakoval. Heh, kot bi

sel "s topom streljat na vrabce" (c) prof.dr. Janez Strnad"

("The idea as I planted is not what I meant to be. Heh, it is

like "going to shoot sparrows with a cannon" (c) prof.dr. Janez Strnad")

Mkx

First, I don't see why Linux matters here. Then I don't see what we are currently learning about Mr. Strnad. Is the quote "shooting sparrows with cannons" supposedly by Strnad? He certainly didn't invent that saying. I can't see the relevance at all. AxelBoldt 19:32 Nov 13, 2002 (UTC)

I do not see any sense moving the above out of the article. This was just one Strnad's imaginary copyrighted quote. For me it is interesting and fun, so ... --XJamRastafire 13:52 Nov 15, 2002 (UTC)

[edit] Selected works

The selection of the articles and books is unproportionally long and should be trimmed. XJam, could you do it? --Tone 14:15, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
