Your Programmer's Motto?

"What do you want?" "Something that doesn't suck." It goes downhill from there. We all know what rolls downhill, too.

It think the first two should flow from the last.

"What we do is never understood, but only praised and blamed." Do you have a programmer's motto?
It is said that the most complex structures built by mankind are software systems. This is not generally appreciated because most people cannot see them. Maybe that's a good thing because if we saw them as buildings, we'd deem many of them unsafe.
"The difficult we do today; the impossible takes a little longer." Others are on my profile.

Sure, I certainly did. :) It's from The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension[^] ...although some people with way too much time on their hands have given the quote a bit more history. http://www.figmentfly.com/bb/popculture4.html[^] Great movie, btw.

I pick and choose from any of the following (Klingon Programmer's Mantra): * Specifications are for the weak and timid! * Debugging? Klingons do not debug. Our software does not coddle the weak. Bugs are good for building character in the user. * You question the worthiness of my code? I should kill you where you stand! * Our users will know fear and cower before our software! Ship it! Ship it and let them flee like the dogs they are! and my all-time favorite: * Perhaps it IS a good day to die! I say we ship it! -=[ R ]=-
