It’s hard to grasp abstractions if you don’t understand what they’re abstracting away from. -- Nathan Weizenbaum
Des mots simples, quand ils sont bien utilisés, font faire à des gens ordinaires des choses extraordinaires. -- Khaled TANGAO
When you’ve got the code all ripped apart, it’s like a car that’s all disassembled. You’ve got all the parts tying all over your garage and you have to replace the broken part or the car will never run. It’s not fun until the code gets back to the baseline again. -- Gary Kildall (inventor of CP/M, one of the first OS for the micro).
Workers of the world, the chains that bind you are not held in place by a ruling class, a "superior" race, by society, the state, or a leader. They are held in place by none other than yourself. Those who seek to exploit are not themselves free, for they place no value in freedom. Who is it that really employs you and commands you to pick up your daily load? And who is it that you allow to pass judgment on the adequacy of your toil? Who have you empowered to dangle the carrot before you and threaten with disapproval? Who, when you wake each morning, sends you off to what you call your work? Is there an "I want to" behind all your "I have to," or have you been so long forgotten to yourself that "I want" exists only as an idea in your head? If you have disconnected from your soul's desire and are drowning in an ocean of "have to," then rise up and overthrow your master. Begin the journey toward emancipation. Work only in such a way that you are truly self-employed. -- Tim Gallwey, The inner game of work
Only bad designers blame their failings on the users. -- unknown
Ne te mets pas de limite, la vie se chargera de la mettre a ta place. -- Darryl AMEDON
People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing. ~Dale Carnegie
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up. –Pablo Picasso
Life isn't about getting and having, it's about giving and being. –Kevin Kruse
Remember no one can make you feel inferior without your consent. –Eleanor Roosevelt
