The person who originally said 'Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use regular expressions." Now they have two problems.' is Jamie Zawinski. And it's an amusing quote, but, that doesn't mean it's generally correct. In the original context, this was more about Zawinski's utter hatred for Perl. http://regex.info/blog/2006-09-15/247
