I missed a couple which didn't mention go:

- Rob Pike is like Henry Ford, except when people said “faster horses” he said “that is the best idea I’ve ever heard.”

- Rob Pike is the Antonin Scalia of programming language design - an Originalist. Except 1970s not 1770s.

Enjoy your horse then; I'll just speed off into the sunset with the latest model Generics Motors has to offer. :)
