in a "quote-y" mood today  

get it? quote-y in quotes? clever no? so yes, a bunch of random quotes i have found and my comments below them:

"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 idiots. So far, the universe is winning."

hopefully when i get out of university, i'll balance the software side a bit. i mean university should be training me for life out there right?!

"Of course there's a lot of knowledge in universities: the freshmen bring a little in; the seniors don't take much away, so knowledge sort of accumulates."

oh crap. hahaha it was very funny last night at kccf grad night. we were "sending the grads off", not by applauding them of all the knowledge they have accumulated over the years, but by playing stupid games with them to make them look like fools. not that i'm opposed to this.

"The secret of happiness is not in doing what one likes, but in liking what one does."

Shoot son, this is a very good saying.

"Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared."

so GET OUT OF YOUR BUBBLE and start sharing the good news. note to self, GET OUT OF YOUR BUBBLE A****.

"The trouble with being punctual is that nobody's there to appreciate it."

one thing i have definitely learned over the past 2 years here in kingston (especially at worship practices). when we chinese people say 7:00 it really means 7:30...

"The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time"

also you forget that people are ALWAYS LATE for worship practice...

"Shin: Device for finding furniture in the dark"

haha...OR its also a weakspot for some people that like to kick shins, ahem you know who you are

"If toast always lands butter-side down, and cats always land on their feet, what happens if you strap toast onthe back of a cat and drop it?"

something i definitely challenge you to think about.
