Thus spake the master programmer:
        "When program is being tested, it is too late to make design changes."
                -- Geoffrey James, "The Tao of Programming"

Thus spake the master programmer:
        "When you have learned to snatch the error code from

                -- Geoffrey James, "The Tao of Programming"

Thus spake the master programmer:
        "Without the wind, the grass does not move.  Without software,

Thus spake the master programmer:
        "You can demonstrate a program for a corporate executive, but you

Thyme's Law:
        Everything goes wrong at once.

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine          And then one day you find
Staying home to watch the rain          Ten years have got behind you
You are young and life is long          No one told you when to run
And there is time to kill today         You missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter           Hanging on in quiet desperation
                                                is the English way
Never seem to find the time             The time is gone, the song is over
Plans that either come to nought        Thought I'd something more to say...
Or half a page of scribbled lines
                -- Pink Floyd, "Time"

Tiddely Quiddely
Edward M. Kennedy
Quite unaccountably
Drove in a stream.

Pleas of amnesia
Incomprehensible
Possibly shattered
Political dream.

Tiger got to hunt,
Bird got to fly;
Man got to sit and wonder, "Why, why, why?"

Tiger got to sleep,
Bird got to land;
Man got to tell himself he understand.
                -- The Books of Bokonon

Time and tide wait for no man.

Time as he grows old teaches all things.
                -- Aeschylus
