Quotes by Erich Gamma (?)

“Design patterns should not be applied indiscriminately. Often they achieve flexibility and variability by introducing additional levels of indirection, and that can complicate a design and/or cost you some performance. A design pattern should only be applied when the flexibility it affords is actually needed.”
― Erich Gamma, Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software

“A design that doesn’t take change into account risks major redesign in the future.”
― Erich Gamma, Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software

“Each pattern describes a problem which occurs over and over again in our environment, and then describes the core of the solution to that problem, in such a way that you can use this solution a million times over, without ever doing it the same way twice”
― Erich Gamma, Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software
