Paraphrased from Jocko Willing and rang true to the many times I’ve dealt with production outages, security incidents, and wide-spread outages like I experienced first hand during some of the first viruses/malware I remember like the Melissa Worm, ILoveYou Worm, and Vbs.OnTheFly (aka the Anna Kournikova).
