Robert C. Martin
“Clean code is not written by following a set of rules. You don’t become a software craftsman by learning a list of heuristics. Professionalism and craftsmanship come from values that drive disciplines.”
Robert C. Martin, Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship

“Generally, the craft of programming is the factoring of a set of requirements into a a set of functions and data structures.”
Douglas Crockford, JavaScript: The Good Parts
