Ah thanks - I couldn't remember the original version. For reference: it's called Kernighan's Law, and can be found in the Second Edition of "The Elements of Programming Style", page 10 [1]. The original phrasing is: > Everyone knows that debugging is twice as hard as writing a program in the first place. So if you’re as clever as you can be when you write it, how will you ever debug it?
