If Java had true garbage collection, most programs would delete themselves upon execution. -- Robert Sewell

Adapting old programs to fit new machines usually means adapting new machines to behave like old ones. -- Alan J. Perlis (Epigrams in programming)

Being a programmer is the same way. The only way to be a good programmer is to write code. When you realize you haven't been writing much code lately, and it seems like all you do is brag about code you wrote in the past, and people start looking at you funny while you're shooting your mouth off, realize it's because they know. They might not even know they know, but they know. So, yes, doing what you love brings success, and by all means, throw yourself a nice big party, buy yourself a nice car, soak up the adulation of an adoring crowd. Then shut the fuck up and get back to work. -- Sincerity Theory

To iterate is human, to recurse divine. -- L. Peter Deutsch

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans. -- John Lennon

Des mots simples, quand ils sont bien utilisés, font faire à des gens ordinaires des choses extraordinaires. -- Khaled TANGAO

Change your thoughts and you change your world. –Norman Vincent Peale

A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him. ~David Brinkley

The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them. ~Denis Watiley

The successful warrior is the average man, with laser-like focus. ~Bruce Lee
