"There is nothing called Quick and Dirty Code. Dirty code is bad code. Period. Never cut corners or accept anything that is second rate."

"If you keep your code clean during normal times but make messes in a crisis, then you don’t really believe that messes slow you down."

That's all fine and well, but I have people at work telling me to cut corners all the time. Just today, the lead developer on my project told me to do it.
