Newton's Laws for Software

Law 1 ..Every Software Engineer continues his state of chatting or
forwarding mails unless he is assigned work by manager.

Law 2. The rate of change in the software is directly proportional to
the payment received from client and takes place at the quick rate as
when deadline force is applied.

Law 3. For every Use Case Manifestation there is an equal but opposite Software Implementation.

(Bonus) Law 4. Bugs can neither be created nor be removed from
software by a developer. It can only be converted from one form to
another. The total number of bugs in the software always remains
constant.
