Donald Knuth has as an epigraph for his draft bitwise tricks chapter for TAOCP the following quote:


 * 1803, George Colman, John Bull, Act 3 Scene 1., quoted in Donald Knuth, "Bitwise Tricks" [draft], The Art of Computer Programming.
 * Lady Caroline: Psha! that's such a hack!
 * Sir Simon:    A hack, Lady Caroline, that the knowing ones have warranted sound.
