When they first built the University of California at Irvine they just put the buildings in. They did not put any sidewalks, they just planted grass.

Perl is those sidewalks in the grass.
--Larry Wall
Happiness should be a function without any parameters.
--Pranshu Midha
'Martyrdom' is the only way a person can become famous without ability.
--George Bernard Shaw
Our consciousness is programmed. We see things a certain way from a young age - we're programmed to keep doing them that way.

--Prince
Object-oriented programming offers a sustainable way to write spaghetti code. It lets you accrete programs as a series of patches.
--Paul Graham
