QUOTE
UNIX is simple. But It just needs a genius to understand its simplicity.
--Dennis Ritchie


Before software can be reusable, it first has to be usable.
--Ralph Johnson


Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgment.



--Fred Brooks




It's hard enough to find an error in your code when you're looking for it;
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



This is the best 1.....
If debugging is the process of removing bugs,
Then programming must be the process of putting them in.
--Edsger Dijkstra


You can either have software quality or you can have pointer arithmetic;
You cannot have both at the same time.
--Bertrand Meyer


There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third works.
--Alan J. Perlis


Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like measuring aircraft building progress by weight.


--Bill Gates




The first 90% of the code accounts for the first 90% of the development time.
The remaining 10% of the code accounts for the other 90% of the development time.


--Tom Cargill




Programmers are in a race with the Universe to create bigger and better idiot-proof programs.
The Universe is trying to create bigger and better idiots.
So far the Universe is winning.
--Anon

Theory is when you know something, but it doesn't work.
Practice is when something works, but you don't know why it works.
Programmers combine Theory and Practice: Nothing works and they don't know why.

The Six Phases of a Project:
· Enthusiasm
· Disillusionment
· Panic
· Search for the Guilty
· Punishment of the Innocent
· Praise for non-participants



Last but not least ! ....

No matter how slick (efficient) the demo is in rehearsal,
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.
