My favourite quote (among many) from her is "write exactly what you hear and never strain to avoid the obvious". I think this is such an amazing principle to follow including in software design. So often I see systems where there is an obvious solution which would be simple and clean and just work and people go out of their way to avoid it so they can follow some pattern or received wisdom about how things should go. Never strain to avoid the obvious.
