Recently I read somewhere that writing long prose is easy but writing something succinct takes way longer. I think that translates to writing code as well.


“ I only made this letter longer because I had not the leisure to make it shorter.” Blaise Pascal


Ironically that's quite a pithy statement.


Brevity is the soul of wit.


Laziness is the father of efficiency.
