Michael C. Feathers
“Code without tests is bad code. It doesn't matter how well written it is; it doesn't matter how pretty or object-oriented or well-encapsulated it is. With tests, we can change the behavior of our code quickly and verifiably. Without them, we really don't know if our code is getting better or worse.”
Michael Feathers, Working Effectively with Legacy Code

Martin Fowler
“I’m not a great programmer; I’m just a good programmer with great habits.”
Martin Fowler, Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code

Michael C. Feathers
“Legacy code. The phrase strikes disgust in the hearts of programmers. It conjures images of slogging through a murky swamp of tangled undergrowth with leaches beneath and stinging flies above. It conjures odors of murk, slime, stagnancy, and offal. Although our first joy of programming may have been intense, the misery of dealing with legacy code is often sufficient to extinguish that flame.”
Michael Feathers, Working Effectively with Legacy Code

Martin Fowler
“I've learned to always avoid saying "always".”
Martin Fowler

Donald Ervin Knuth
“Premature optimization is the root of all evil.”
Donald Ervin Knuth, The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 1: Fundamental Algorithms
