“The finest eloquence is that which gets things done; the worst is that which delays them.”
David Lloyd George

Robert C. Martin
“Truth can only be found in one place: the code.”
Robert C. Martin, Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship

William Shakespeare
“It is the curse of kings to be attended
By slaves that take their humours for a warrant
To break within the bloody house of life,
And on the winking of authority
To understand a law, to know the meaning
Of dangerous majesty, when perchance it frowns
More upon humour than advised respect.”
William Shakespeare, King John

Karl Popper
“Theories are nets cast to catch what we call 'the world': to rationalize, to explain, and to master it. We endeavor to make the mesh ever finer and finer.”
Karl Popper

Terry Pratchett
“You're being reasonable again!" snapped Angua. "You're deliberately seeing everyone's point of view! Can't you try to be unfair even once?”
Terry Pratchett, Feet of Clay
