GP's quotes are paraphrased from PEP 20 and I think _are_ put of Python culture, at least as I've experienced it.

I'm afraid you've misunderstood olavk's point. 'The "quote" you made up' certainly refers to

> "here's this cool feature for doing something you could do a different way that looks like hieroglyphics and nobody understands but you should totally use it because it's awesome!"

not to

> "explicit is better than implicit" and "there should be one and only one good way"


Yeah that is what I meant, sorry for being unclear.


Doh, I think you're right!
