“A failure will not appear till a unit has passed final inspection.”“The primary function of the design engineer is to make things difficult for the fabricator and impossible for the serviceman.”“The only perfect science is hind-sight.”“If an experiment works, something has gone wrong.”“If there is a possibility of several things going wrong the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong.”“Any attempt to print Murphy’s laws will jam the printer.”And the best one: “Murphy was an optimist.”

I read somewhere that the original Murphy was an Air Force officer working on the 1940s rocket-sled experiments to test human endurance to high acceleration. One run failed to produce data, and Murphy reported that most of the accelerometers had been installed backwards. He concluded that if the people responsible could have done the job worse, they would have done it. Somehow this metastasized into the Murphy’s Law we have today.
