The whole intent of Perl 5's module system was to encourage the growth of Perl culture rather than the Perl core.

When I announced the development of Perl 6, I said it was going to be a community design. I designed Perl, myself. It's limited by my own brain power. So I wanted Perl 6 to be a community design.

A 'goto' in Perl falls into the category of hard things that should be possible, not easy things that should be easy.

No person can be punished for entertaining or professing religious beliefs or disbeliefs, for church attendance or non-attendance.

Hugo Black

Conferences with open attendance are very important for the stimulation of young people or other people who are new in the field. ... The field of high-energy physics is, as you know, very strongly in the hands of a clique and it is hard for an outsider to enter.

Victor Frederick Weisskopf

It is so easy to be average. It takes a little something to be special. Why be around average?

Urban Meyer

A lot of the websites built through the 1990s used Perl. The first webmaster of Sun Microsystems coined a wonderful phrase. He said Perl is the duck tape of the Internet - it's this language that people would write all these scripts that make things just work.

Tim O'Reilly

I've always said when I broke in I was an average player. I had an average arm, average speed and definitely an average bat. I am still average in all of those.

Conferences are really like parties, and an A-list party is one where A-list people are in attendance. You figure out who are the really important people to invite and get them to show up as speakers or as guests. Then everybody wants to be there. If you don't know who the important people are, you shouldn't be doing a conference.

Tim O'Reilly

I never calculate. That is why those who do, calculate so much less accurately than I.

Pablo Picasso

It is quite wrong for party conferences to be used as an excuse for the Commons not to sit. Conferences could be held at weekends.

John Bercow

To Perl , or not to Perl, that is the kvetching.

Larry Wall

I think that we have to be constantly asking ourselves, 'How do we calculate the risk?' And sometimes we don't calculate it correctly; we either overstate it or understate it.

Hillary Clinton

I come from a world where the word 'trauma' doesn't exist, because we are too poor. I didn't have an easy life compared to the average European. But compared to the average African, it wasn't all that bad.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali

When you get a record attendance for What Culture Pro Wrestling - or just recently with Matt Cross, we did a record attendance for Next Gen in Tennessee. These are various brands. They're not rinky-dink. They're small - they're not WWE - but their soul is there.
