We don't know who it was that discovered water, but we're pretty sure
that it wasn't a fish.
                -- Marshall McLuhan

We don't need no education, we don't need no thought control.
                -- Pink Floyd

We don't need no indirection            We don't need no compilation
We don't need no flow control           We don't need no load control
No data typing or declarations          No link edit for external bindings
Hey! did you leave the lists alone?     Hey! did you leave that source alone?
Chorus:                                 (Chorus)
        Oh No. It's just a pure LISP function call.

We don't need no side-effecting         We don't need no allocation
We don't need no flow control           We don't need no special-nodes
No global variables for execution       No dark bit-flipping for debugging
Hey! did you leave the args alone?      Hey! did you leave those bits alone?
(Chorus)                                (Chorus)
                -- "Another Glitch in the Call", a la Pink Floyd

We don't really understand it, so we'll give it to the programmers.

We don't smoke and we don't chew, and we don't go with girls that do.
                -- Walter Summers

We don't understand the software, and sometimes we don't
understand the hardware, but we can *see* the blinking lights!

We found on St. Paul's only two kinds of birds -- the booby and the noddy...
Both are of a tame and stupid disposition, and are so unaccustomed to
visitors, that I could have killed any number of them with my geological
hammer.
                -- Charles Darwin

We give advice, but we cannot give the wisdom to profit by it.
                -- La Rochefoucauld

We gotta get out of this place,
If it's the last thing we ever do.
                -- The Animals
