Martin > Lisp is worth learning for the profound enlightenment experience you will have when you finally get it. - Eric Raymond > If you like Java, program in Java. If you like C#, program in C#. If you like Ruby, Swift, Dart, Elixir, Elm, C++, Python, or even C; by all means use those languages. But whatever you do, learn Clojure, and learn it well. - [Uncle Bob](https://twitter.com/unclebobmartin/status/1214906676840669184), > 50 years ago I programmed In assembler, it was great. > 40 y/a I switched to C, it was great. > 30 y/a I switched to C++, it was great. > 20 y/a I switched to Java, it was great. > 15 y/a I switched to Ruby, it was great. > 10 y/a I switched to Clojure. > > I doubt I’ll switch again. > — https://twitter.com/unclebobmartin/status/1408421494514933767?lang=en
