  There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make
it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is
to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first
method is far more difficult.  -C. A. R. Hoare

  Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers
write code that humans can understand. - Martin Fowler
