There are no "simple" bugs.
"Program testing can be a very effective way to show the presence of bugs, but is hopelessly inadequate for showing their absence." - Edsger Dijkstra
If the code and the comments disagree, they are both probably wrong
Inside every complex program is a simple program trying to get out
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they're not.
"There are no significant bugs in our released software that any significant number of users want fixed." - Bill Gates

"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." - Leonardo da Vinci
"I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them." - Isaac Asimov
"Measuring programming progress by lines of code is like measuring aircraft building progress by weight." - Bill Gates
"Syntactic sugar causes cancer of the semicolon." - Alan J. Perlis
Deleted code is debugged code
"Owning a computer without programming is like having a kitchen and using only the microwave oven." - Charles Petzold
The difference between theory and practice is smaller in theory than in practice
The more bizarre the behavior, the more stupid the mistake.
There is nothing as permanent as a quick fix
