Two laws of the universe
The first law of the universe:
Every action has both intended and unintended consequences. The intended consequences may or may not happen; the unintended consequences always happen.
The second law of the universe:
Simple, clear purpose and principles give rise to complex, intelligent behavior. Complex rules and regulations give rise to simple, stupid behavior.
