“Programmers are not mathematicians, no matter how much we wish and wish for it.”
Richard P. Gabriel

“It is only when we forget the ideas behind building something wonderful that we can actually do the building that makes things wonderful.”
Richard P. Gabriel

“One of the primary reasons that abstraction is overloved is that a completed program full of the right abstractions is perfectly beautiful. But there are very few completed programs, because programs are written, maintained, bugs are fixed, features are added, performance is tuned, and a whole variety of changes are made both by the original and new programming team members. Thus, the way a program looks in the end is not important because there is rarely an end, and if there is one it isn't planned.”
Richard P. Gabriel, Patterns of Software: Tales from the Software Community
