debugging

[TiTnAsS]

As soon as we started programming, we found to our surprise that it wasn't as easy to get programs right as we had thought. Debugging had to be discovered. I can remember the exact instant when I realized that a large part of my life from then on was going to be spent in finding mistakes in my own programs.

That quote can be carried over analogously to a number of disciplines—visual arts, music, photography, writing, so forth. So yeah, damn straight.
