Here is the image that I would probably use if I were to get a custom 1L water bottle from CafePress:
While it is the PLT Scheme logo, lambda is certainly not PLT Scheme specific ;).
Geoff:
The image above is configured for the 1L water bottle. The quote can be changed, to, but this one seemed to be in just the right spirit: hopeful, positive, not snarky…
Personally I wouldn’t choose a Dijkstra quotation for a PLT bottle. I like Eli’s .sig:
((λ(x)(x x))(λ(x)(x x)))
Oh, wait. I see the context of your Dijkstra quotation–he was talking about Lisp.
Matthias has some neat quotations on his home page.
Probably the best collection is here: http://www.paulgraham.com/quotes.html
and I see it includes the one from Dijkstra.
Geoff:
Exactly I wanted something LISP related, but, I also wanted it to be “accessible” for non-LISP people.
I figured that the PLT logo, and if nothing else the lambda, would be recognizable enough for people who are interested in that sort of thing.
I’ll buy one, maybe several.

If you are interested in a sticker then let me know. Each sheet has 20 stickers, and I don’t have a use for that many.
