I know you’ve probably seen many of these, but I found this wonderful Perl quine and I thought you would enjoy it.

Dear Mr. <omitted>,
As a matter of fact, I've never run into a self-replicating program
that had an interesting shape, let alone such a pretty spiral. So thanks
for sending it along.
All the best,
Douglas Hofstadter.
