"There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses"
- Bjarne Stroustrup
He was very biased; it counts for little.

You, sir, will be quoted some day :)
Wah! :) Is there a like button here?
Not sure why it got all the down votes. Since Visual BASIC faded away there's been two mainstream languages that have come in for much complaint; C++ and PHP. All languages suffer some valid criticism as none are perfect but the weight of criticism for these two suggest much is deserved, it is in my opinion. Consequently, that the author/facilitator of C++ has a fun quote to dismiss the large-scale criticism is fun but "counts for little" as he's biased.
