“When there is freedom from mechanical conditioning, there is simplicity. The classical man is just a bundle of routine, ideas and tradition. If you follow the classical pattern, you are understanding the routine, the tradition, the shadow - you are not understanding yourself.”
Bruce Lee
“Most of the fundamental ideas of science are essentially simple, and may, as a rule, be expressed in a language comprehensible to everyone.”
Albert Einstein
“If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough”
“Out of intense complexities intense simplicities emerge.”
Winston Churchill
“Purity and simplicity are the two wings with which man soars above the earth and all temporary nature.”
Thomas Kempis
“Writing is no trouble: you just jot down ideas as they occur to you. The jotting is simplicity itself -- it is the occurring which is difficult.”
Stephen Leacock
“Man is an over-complicated organism. If he is doomed to extinction he will die out for want of simplicity.”
Ezra Pound
