Ruby

Ruby is the perfect language. Its syntax is terse enough that you can be super productive when you know what you’re doing, and the huge number of open source projects around it will make you feel like you’re never alone trying to solve a problem. And it’s deep enough that you’ll feel that you’re always learning about how to do things more elegantly.

We should all thank Matz for his work. For fun, try to read his translated web diary—the auto translation is pretty bad :)
