“Bugs lurk in corners and congregate at boundaries.”

More than the act of testing, the act of designing tests is one of the best bug preventers known.

First law: The pesticide paradox. Every method you use to prevent or find bugs leaves a residue of subtler bugs against which those methods are ineffective.

Software never was perfect and won’t get perfect. But is that a license to create garbage? The missing ingredient is our reluctance to quantify quality.

If you can’t test it, don’t build it. If you don’t test it, rip it out.

Bullies do whatever they can get away with and keep pushing boundaries until they meet resistance.

National boundaries these days are not that important because of transformative technological development. Now we are talking about the fourth industrial revolution.

I love cloisters, which are the architectural equivalent of a theological concept: perfect freedom within set boundaries.

The boundaries became constrictive in what I was doing, and if my faith grew, it was because I pressed some of the boundaries in ways I hadn’t felt comfortable or responsible doing that before.

One of the key things in the tech business in particular is that you need to be able to push boundaries.

I’m an artist who is always looking for what is possible. I’m always looking to extend the boundaries.

You lose your separateness, you lose your specialness, you lose the dream you have lived all your life. Eventually you lose everything that your mind has created and awaken to who you truly are: the fullness of freedom, unbound by any identifications, identities, or boundaries.

Ego is neither positive nor negative. Those are simply concepts that create more boundaries. Ego is just ego, and the disaster of it all is that you, as a spiritual seeker, have been conditioned to think of the ego as bad, as an enemy, as something to be destroyed.
