Aldo Leopold
- Fish, man.
How like fish we are: ready, nay eager, to seize upon whatever new thing some wind of circumstance shakes upon the river of time.... The only prudence in fishermen is that designed to set the stage for taking yet another, and perhaps a longer, chance.
Robert X. Cringely
- Moore's Law with Cars
If the automobile had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cost $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside.
Alan Kay
- Computers
Most software today is very much like an Egyptian pyramid with millions of bricks piled on top of each other, with no structural integrity, but just done by brute force and thousands of slaves.
