A program that has not been tested does not work.

C++ is my favorite garbage collected language because it generates so little garbage

Design and programming are human activities; forget that and all is lost.

Certainly not every good program is object-oriented, and not every object-oriented program is good.

Clearly, I reject the view that there is one way that is right for everyone and for every problem.

Any verbose and tedious solution is error-prone because programmers get bored.

After all, C++ isn't a perfect match for Java's design aims either.
