"A Return to Fundamentals", great book.

"the Internet today is more like DOS, but what we need should be more like Unix"

Great thing he didn't say Windows :-)

I like these:

"networking is interprocess communication".  (quoted from Metcalfe - 1972)

"Q: So, how long should an address be?
 A: Processing the address should halt"

Chapters 5-8 are the meat of naming and addressing and he has a LOT to say on the subjects...  :-)
