Quotes from my screensaver, relevant to this discussion:



"Progress is possible only if we train ourselves to think about programs

without thinking of them as pieces of executable code." - Edsger W. Dijkstra



and



"We have to let the symbols do the work, for that is the only known

technique that scales up." - Edsger W. Dijkstra
