Perl is not a bad language, but it's one of the easiest languages in which to write code that is unreadable and unmaintainable by other programmers, which is just as bad as writing code that doesn't work, because eventually it won't. Of course it is quite possible to write good or bad code in any language, just some make it easier than others. Few people do both design and implementation well, there is a broad spectrum between them.

It is a species of intemperance within itself, for it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. A Prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded." --Abraham Lincoln
