Dick Maliska  Imagine if every Thursday your shoes exploded if you tied them the usual way. This happens to us all the time with computers, and nobody thinks of complaining. •Jeff Raskin   Applying computer technology is simply finding the right wrench to pound in the correct screw. •Anonymous   The Programmer's Time-Space Continuum is defined as "Programmers continuously space the time." •Leon Lanthier   Computers are useless - they only give you answers. •Pablo Picasso   "Paradosfunctionoracle" is the term used by technicians to describe the reason no one knows why your computer won't work. •J. H. Goldfuss   No machine will increase the possibilities of life. They only increase the possibilities of idleness. •John Ruskin   All programmers are playwrights and all computers are lousy actors. •Anonymous  Computers can figure out all kinds of problems, except the things in the world that just don't add up. •James Magary  Computer Science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes. •E W Dijkstra  Where a calculator on the ENIAC is equpped with 18,000 vaccuum tubes and weighs 30 tons, computers in the future may have only 1,000 vaccuum tubes and perhaps weigh 1 1/2 tons. •Popular Mechanics, 1949  Computers make it easier to do a lot of things, but most of the things they make it easier to do don't need to be done. •Andy Rooney  Not even computers will replace committees, because committees buy computers. •Edward Shepherd Mead  A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. •John Gall   There won't be anything we won't say to people to try and convince them that our way is the way to go. •Bill Gates  If you can't make it good, at least make it look good. •Bill Gates  Looking at the proliferation of personal web pages on the net, it looks like very soon everyone on earth will have 15 Megabytes of fame. •MG Siriam   Surfing on the Internet is like sex; everyone boasts about doing more than they actually do. But in the case of the Internet, it's a lot more. •Tom Fasulo   Cyberspace: A consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate operators, in every nation. •William Gibson   URLs are the 800 numbers of the 1990's. •Chris Clark   My favorite thing about the Internet is that you get to go into the private world of real creeps without having to smell them. •Penn Jillett   We've all heard that a million monkeys banging on a million typewriters will eventually reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. Now, thanks to the Internet, we know this is not true. •Robert Wilensky   It shouldn't be too much of a surprise that the Internet has evolved into a force strong enough to reflect the greatest hopes and fears of those who use it. After all, it was designed to withstand nuclear war, not just the puny huffs and puffs of politicians and religious fanatics. •Denise Caruso   Wow! They've got the internet on computers now! •Homer Simpson  Man is a game playing animal and a computer is another way to play games. •Scott Adams  I do not fear computers. I fear lack of them. •Isaac Asimov   Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idoits. So far, the Universe is winning. •Rich Cook   If automobiles had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cost $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside. •Robert Cringely   I try to get people to see what I have... When you run a computer company, you have to get people to buy into your dreams. •Steve Jobs   The most overlooked advantage to owning a computer is that if they foul up there's no law against wacking them around a little. •Porterfield   People who buy Macs are the same people who said BETA is better than VHS 15 years ago. •Anonymous  Technology is dominated by two types of people: those who understand what they do not manage, and those who manage what they do not understand. •Anonymous  But in our enthusiasm, we could not resist a radical overhaul of the system, in which all of its major weaknesses have been exposed, analyzed, and replaced with new weaknesses. •Bruce Leverett  Anybody who's studied software engineering knows that a schedule which underestimates the time needed to develop a project actually makes the project take longer.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Saddle your dreams before you ride em. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63238]]></link><description><![CDATA[Saddle your dreams before you ride em.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63238</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A theory must be tempered with reality. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53063]]></link><description><![CDATA[A theory must be tempered with reality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53063</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Birth of John the Baptist Continuing a short series on authenticity:   There, right in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8507]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Birth of John the Baptist Continuing a short series on authenticity:   There, right in the middle of our lives, is that which satisfies the craving for inequality, and acts as a permanent reminder that medicine is not food. Hence a man's reaction to Monarchy is a kind of test. Monarchy can easily be "debunked"; but watch the faces, mark well the accents, of the debunkers. These are the men whose tap-root in Eden has been cut: whom no rumour of the polyphony, the dance, can reach -- men to whom pebbles laid in a row are more beautiful than an arch. Yet even if they desire mere equality, they cannot reach it. Where men are forbidden to honour a king, they honour millionaires, athletes, or film-stars instead: even famous prostitutes or gangsters. For spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On the whole we must repeat the often repeated saying, that it is unworthy a religious man to view an ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53476]]></link><description><![CDATA[On the whole we must repeat the often repeated saying, that it is unworthy a religious man to view an irreligious one either with alarm or aversion; or with any other feeling than regret, and hope, and brotherly commiseration.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This will be an informational meeting. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40519]]></link><description><![CDATA[This will be an informational meeting.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Democracy is the art of running the circus from the monkey cage. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47502]]></link><description><![CDATA[Democracy is the art of running the circus from the monkey cage.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Handle your tools without mittens. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62105]]></link><description><![CDATA[Handle your tools without mittens.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62105</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who like sour fruit to stir their veins' salt tides. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48785]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who like sour fruit to stir their veins' salt tides.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48785</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A pessimist is an optimist with experience ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45184]]></link><description><![CDATA[A pessimist is an optimist with experience]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45184</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Killing the West Side stadium gave Shelly Silver a new image as a populist defender of his constituency.
