Steve McConnell Quote

NASA identifies reuse candidates at the ends of their projects. They then perform the work needed to make the classes reusable as a special project at the end of the main project or as the first step in a new project. This approach helps prevent gold-plating—creation of functionality that isn't required and that unnecessarily adds complexity.
