Anyone who make a significant contribution to any field
of endeavor and stays in that field long enough,
becomes an obstruction to its progress -- in direct
proportion to the importance of his original contribution.

If a scientist uncovers a publishable fact, it will
become central to his theory.

His theory, in turn, will become central to all
scientific truth.

There is no such thing as a straight line.

In any series of calculations, errors tend to occur
at the opposite end to the end at which you begin
checking for errors.

Only errors exist.

One man's error is another man's data.

To err is human, but to really foul things up requires
a computer.

When putting it into memory, remember where you put it.

Never test for an error condition you don't know
how to handle.

Everybody lies; but it doesn't matter, since
nobody listens.
