J'ai toujours préféré la folie des passions à la sagesse de l'indifférence. -- Anatole France
Another feature about this guy is his low threshold of boredom. He'll pick up on a task and work frantically at it, accomplishing wonders in a short time and then get bored and drop it before its properly finished. He'll do nothing but strum his guitar and lie around in bed for several days after. Thats also part of the pattern too; periods of frenetic activity followed by periods of melancholia, withdrawal and inactivity. This is a bipolar personality. -- The bipolar lisp programmer
If debugging is the process of removing bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in. -- Edsger W. Dijkstra
Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies, The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. -- C.S. Lewis
Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make all sentences short or avoid all detail and treat subjects only in outline, but that every word tell. -- William Strunk, Jr. (The Elements of Style)
The purpose of abstraction is not to be vague, but to create a new semantic level in which one can be absolutely precise. -- Edsger Dijkstra
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined. –Henry David Thoreau
Life is not about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. ~Lolly Daskal
Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value. –Albert Einstein
What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise.~ Oscar Wilde
