This may be my favourite software architecture quote.
Anyway, only today did I make the connection between this observation and the Vimes theory of socioeconomic unfairness (a.k.a. the Boots theory of socio-economic unfairness) and how organisations end up time poor or failing to prioritise appropriate work.

If you're not familiar with Sam Vimes, he's a character from Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. He's captain of the watch. The Boots theory comes from Men at Arms...
