Lines: 10 From: Melinda Berkman I've always wondered where the quote that is used to authorize real-world mode for the computer Shalmaneser in _Stand_On_Zanzibar_ is from. Seeing it used again in Diane Duane's Star Trek novel _The_Wounded_Sky_ has reminded me of it. Does anyone know where "I tell you once, I tell you twice, what I tell you three times is true" is from?
