Mmmm, proverbs and quotes, I love them. Though I have to say, my version of the 
tech writer's proverb is:

"Ce que l'on conçoit bien s'énonce clairement,
 Et les mots pour le dire arrivent aisément."

"That which is well conceived is clearly said,
 And the words to say it flow with ease."

--Nicolas Boileau-Despréaux (1636-1711)
  L'Art Poétique (The Art of Poetry, 1674), Canto I, l. 153
