Quotes I've found. This is as good a place to put them as any, I suppose.
"Less than 10% of the code has to do with the ostensible purpose of the system; the rest deals with input-output, data validation, data structure maintenance, and other housekeeping." -- Mary Shaw (from Pro Asp.Net 4 CMS)
"Low-level programming is good for the programmer's soul." -- John Carmack (from Pro Asp.Net 4 CMS)
"If the automobile had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cose $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside." -- Robert X. Cringly (from Pro Asp.Net 4 CMS)
"What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others." -- Pericles
"The learning process is something you can incite, literally incite, like a riot." - Audre Lorde
