Yogi Berra, baseball legend and accidental philosopher, once gave his friend Joe Garagiola directions to his house in Montclair, New Jersey. "When you come to a fork in the road," he said, "take it." This wasn't Zen koaning—it turned out both roads actually led to the same place. But as a life metaphor, it's stuck around for decades, because most of us know exactly what it feels like to stand at that fork, rooted to the spot, watching traffic go by.
