Premature optimization is the root of all evil (or at least most of it) in programming. -- Donald Knuth

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
Ecoute, crois en ton projet... Implique toi à fond... Trouve des aspects innovants pour te distinguer des autres. Tu verras que tu te feras remarquer très facilement... -- Khaled Tangao
I would rather die of passion than of boredom. –Vincent van Gogh
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. –Wayne Gretzky
Life is not about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. ~Lolly Daskal
When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us. –Helen Keller
