I don't ever know where I'm going. Because one of the wonderful things about writing, which is different than working in programming, you don't need to know. You could just write and discover where you're going. And it's a great deal of fun.
Walter Mosley

We live in a world where finding fault in others seems to be the favorite blood sport. It has long been the basis of political campaign strategy. It is the theme of much television programming across the world. It sells newspapers. Whenever we meet anyone, our first, almost unconscious reaction may be to look for imperfections.

I remarked to Dennis that easily half the code I was writing in Multics was error recovery code. He said, We left all that stuff out of Unix. If there's an error, we have this routine called panic, and when it is called, the machine crashes, and you holler down the hall, 'Hey, reboot it.'

There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult.

Unix is a junk OS designed by a committee of PhDs.

Learning. It's really the primary reason behind everything I do. Programming, entrepreneuring, writing.

The job of the average manager requires a shift in focus every few minutes. The job of the average software developer requires that the developer not shift focus more often than every few hours.

To the scientist there is the joy in pursuing truth which nearly counteracts the depressing revelations of truth.
H. P. Lovecraft

Conceptual integrity is the most important consideration in system design.
Fred Brooks

It's never too late to change the programming imprinted in childhood, carried in our genes or derived from previous lives the solution is mindfulness in the present moment.
Peter Shepherd

Throughout my career, I've realized that there are a lot of great opportunities out there to be associated with programming. It may have started elsewhere, as Crimson Petal did in the UK. So, our main strategy for Encore is to go through those types of partnership acquisitions.

If the system exhibits a structure which can be represented by a mathematical equivalent, called a mathematical model, and if the objective can be also so quantified, then some computational method may be evolved for choosing the best schedule of actions among alternatives. Such use of mathematical models is termed mathematical programming.

The best way to get a project done faster is to start sooner

As a rule, software systems do not work well until they have been used, and have failed repeatedly, in real applications.
David Parnas

If you lie to the compiler, it will get its revenge.
Henry Spencer

Here is a language so far ahead of its time, that it was not only an improvement on its predecessors, but also on nearly all its successors.
Tony Hoare
Image
I worked with such concentration and focus and I had hundreds of obscure engineering or programming things in my head. I was just real exceptional in that way
Steve Wozniak

I think there's a lot of really good programming on television. What I've noticed, through the years of being a professional writer, is the watering down process of story. You have to market to the masses and not offend anybody.

Fashion is something barbarous, for it produces innovation without reason and imitation without benefit.
George Santayana

All hope abandon, ye who enter here!
Dante Alighieri

I'm not a real programmer. I throw together things until it works then I move on. The real programmers will say Yeah it works but you're leaking memory everywhere. Perhaps we should fix that. I'll just restart Apache every 10 requests.
Rasmus Lerdorf

Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships.
Linus Torvalds

How do we convince people that in programming simplicity and clarity - in short: what mathematicians call elegance - are not a dispensable luxury, but a crucial matter that decides between success and failure?
