--Ralph Johnson

It's even harder when you've assumed your code is error-free.
-- Steve McConnell Code Complete
The trouble with the world is that the stupid are sure and the intelligent are full of doubt.
--Bertrand Russell
If debugging is the process of removing bugs,
Then programming must be the process of putting them in.
--Edsger Dijkstra

You cannot have both at the same time.

--Alan J. Perlis
Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like measuring aircraft building progress by weight.
--Bill Gates

When you do it in front of a live audience
The probability of a flawless presentation
Is inversely proportional to the number of people watching,
Raised to the power of the amount of money involved.
