• "if you want something done right, write a program.", Knuth's rule.
• "Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes.", Dijkstra.
• "I sat down and started to type in the entire program in Pascal. After X hours the entire system was entered. Then I tried to compile it all. After fixing a few syntax errors the system compiled. I then tried to typeset a sample piece of TeX. Again after fixing a few errors I got this all to work.", Lipton's short version of Knuth's talk on the first version of TeX.
