Crypticity said...

There are many good lines in it. I like this one:

"Solving cryptic crosswords requires a particular kind of insight, an often perverse way of looking at the problem.

This is one of the features of problem solving and programming, although many good problem-solvers would prefer to label their thinking as lateral rather than perverse"
