Recently, a Twitter cited Gall's Law, which I
was amazed I hadn't heard before:
Gall's Law: "A complex system that works is invariably found to have
evolved from a simple system that worked. A complex system designed
from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work. You
have to start over with a working simple system." John Gall (1975,
p.71)

I like it. I believe The Teacher said something
similar, once, about this form of hubris:
"Vanity of vanities. All is vanity."
