A programming language is for thinking about programs, not for expressing programs you've already thought of. It should be a pencil, not a pen.

Object-oriented programming offers a sustainable way to write spaghetti code. It lets you accrete programs as a series of patches.

I've always written by hand. Mostly with a fountain pen, but sometimes with a pencil - especially for corrections.

“We speculated what it was like before we got language skills. When we humans had our first thought, most likely we didn’t know what to think. It’s hard to think without words ‘cause you haven’t got a clue as to what you’re thinking. So if you think we suffer from a lack of communication now, think what it must have been like then, when people lived in a ‘verbal void’ - made worse by the fact that there were no words such as ‘verbal void‘.”

I'm all about high-waisted pants and skirts, pencil skirts, and sheer, long-sleeves in the summer.

When someone says "I want a programming language in which I need only say what I wish done," give him a lollipop.
