Sitater
Jeg er i besittelse av en fyldig sitatsamling møysommelig bygget opp etter
flere års daglig bruk av Unix-programmet fortune. Her er noen av dem:
- Reporter (to Mahatma Gandhi): Mr. Gandhi, what do you
think of Western Civilization?
Gandhi: I think it would be a good idea.
- I often quote myself; it adds spice to my
conversation.
- G. B. Shaw
- There is no reason anyone would want a computer in
their home.
- K. Olsen, grunnlegger av Digital Equipment
Corp.(DEC),1977.
- God may be subtle, but He isn't plain mean.
- A. Einstein
- The use of COBOL cripples the mind; its teaching
should, therefore, be regarded as a criminal offence.
- E. W. Dijkstra
- For every complex problem, there is an answer that is short, simple and
wrong.
- H. L. Mencken
- THE LESSER-KNOWN PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES #12: LITHP
This otherwise unremarkable language is distinguished by the absence of an
"S" in its character set; users must substitute "TH". LITHP is said to be
useful in protheththing lithtth.
- To be is to do. - I. Kant
To do is to be. - J.-P. Sartre
Yabba-Dabba-Doo! - F. Flinstone
- Cogito cogito ergo cogito sum (I think that I think, therefore I think
that I am.)
Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary
- You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long
cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do
you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send
signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is
no cat.
- A. Einstein
