Tracy Kidder

“Conway's Law predicts: "Organizations which design systems are constrained to produce systems which are copies of the communication structures of these organizations."[1] Conway goes on to point out that the organization chart will initially reflect the first system design, which is almost surely not the right one.

Frederick P. Brooks Jr., The Mythical Man-Month: Essays on Software Engineering

“The challenge and the mission are to find real solutions to real problems on actual schedules with available resources.”
Frederick P. Brooks Jr., The Mythical Man-Month: Essays on Software Engineering

Richard P. Feynman
