Erik is a great source of quotes. I've added three from that message, to go
with the other one I already have:

"it's just that in C++ and the like, you don't trust _anybody_, and in CLOS
 you basically trust everybody.  the practical result is that thieves and
 bums use C++ and nice people use CLOS."                -- Erik Naggum

Hmmm. You could say the same about perl.
