On page 4 of "The C++ Programming Language," by Bjarne Stroustrup:

"C++ was primarily designed so that the author and his friends would
not have to program in assembler, C, or various modern high-level
languages.  Its main purpose is to make writing good programs easier
and more pleasant for the individual programmer."
