Quote by Gojko Adzic

“A common pattern for teams that start with test automation, or development groups that start breaking down silos between testers and developers, is to take existing manual tests and automate them. Unless it’s a training exercise for an automation tool, this is almost always a bad idea.”

“Although the King has a south Indiansounding Sanskrit name, his grandfather, the chief credited with founding the dynasty, is clearly indigenous Javanese: he is called Kadungga, implying that the same family dynasty continued to rule while changing their names and court language. The transformation, in other words, came not with the sword or conquest but peacefully, possibly with intermarriage, as local chieftains took on the Brahmins’ new religion and, with it, new Hindu names, titles and rituals. The adoption of Indian practices, in other words, came voluntarily over generations, with conversion and influence, and not by conquest and military subjection, as earlier Indian historians once believed.”

“Time is sacred. Or at least that is what we are led to believe. There isn’t an entity in existence, immortal or otherwise, that isn’t intimidated by its relentless march. Each moment is cruelly hauled into the past without chance of salvage, with us standing by as mere spectators, glimpsing the train as it barrels through, condemned to snippets and never the whole. But perhaps it is this transience that makes a moment so precious, maybe if it were otherwise, we’d exist without meaning. Time is our bittersweet shadow, giving us life as it takes it away.”

“It now seems probable that the Krishna statue was erected at the place which was revered as the site of the founding Khmer myth: the place where the newly arrived Indian Brahmin Kaundinya was believed to have met and married local Mera the naga princess (we will hear more of this myth shortly). By erecting a major temple there to Lord Krishna, ‘Phnom Da becomes a new Mount Govardhan, and probably, by extension, the Mekong River becomes the holy river Yamuna,’ thereby ritually extending the sacred geography of India to South-east Asia.”

“Toliko sam već dugo bio u Nepalu, a još nisam video Himalaje. Nepalci su me sažaljivo gledali, stranci se čudili, prijatelji me opravdavali sigurni da ću jednom tamo otići. Za sve sam bio nevernik koji stoji na pragu Kuće bogova, vrata od duginih boja su mu otvorena, svetlost je put, a on stoji, čeka; a možda i ne zna gde je, možda se nije probudio. Martin kaže da je u Himalajima ono što tražim. Jedino tamo ljudi će se setiti svog pravog davnog zaboravljenog lika. Ona je tamo, zagledana jedne večeri u daleku zvezdu, videla sebe u njoj, kao u ogledalu. Nebesa su ogledalo, a zvezde, modre, sjajne, ljudske oči.”
