Best Quotes about Simplicity

1.
No matter how complicated a problem is, it usually can be reduced to a simple, comprehensible form which is often the best solution.
Wang, An

Kempis, Thomas

Jessie Sampter

5.
Life is really simple, but men insist on making it complicated.
Confucius

6.
The trouble with so many of us is that we underestimate the power of simplicity. We have a tendency it seems to over complicate our lives and forget what's important and what's not. We tend to mistake movement for achievement. We tend to focus on activities instead of results. And as the pace of life continues to race along in the outside world, we forget that we have the power to control our lives regardless of what's going on outside.
Stuberg, Robert

7.
It the proof of high culture to say the greatest matters in the simplest way.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

8.
A refined simplicity is the characteristic of all high bred deportment, in every country, and a considerate humanity should be the aim of all beneath it.
Cooper, James F.

9.
Partial culture runs to the ornate, extreme culture to simplicity.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

Seek simplicity but distrust it.
Whitehead, Alfred North

Understanding reduces the greatest to simplicity, and lack of its causes the least to take on the magnitude.

Johnson, Samuel

13.
To simplify complications is the first essential of success.
Buckle, George Earle

14.
Simplicity in character, in manners, in style; in all things the supreme excellence is simplicity.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

15.
My aim is to put down on paper what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way.

16.
Intellectual comradeship requires that you think your thoughts through to the place where you can make the complex seem simple, the obscure quite clear.

Einstein, Albert

19.
The business schools reward difficult complex behavior more than simple behavior, but simple behavior is more effective.
Buffett, Warren

20.
The price we pay for the complexity of life is too high. When you think of all the effort you have to put in --telephonic, technological and relational --to alter even the slightest bit of behavior in this strange world we call social life, you are left pining for the straightforwardness of primitive peoples and their physical work.
Baudrillard, Jean

21.
Order and simplification are the first steps towards the mastery of a subject.
Mann, Thomas

22.
Nothing is as simple as we hope it will be.
Jim Horning

23.
The whole is simpler than the sum of its parts.
Gibbs, Willard

24.
It is far more difficult to be simple than to be complicated; far more difficult to sacrifice skill and easy execution in the proper place, than to expand both indiscriminately.
Ruskin, John

25.
Elegance of language may not be in the power of all of us; but simplicity and straight forwardness are. Write much as you would speak; speak as you think. If with your inferior, speak no coarser than usual; if with your superiors, no finer.
Alford

26.
God always takes the simplest way.
Einstein, Albert

I adore simple pleasures. They are the last refuge of the complex.
Oscar Wilde

28.
Simple ideas lie within the reach only of complex minds.
Gourmont, Remy De

29.
It's not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.
Lee, Bruce

30.
Divide each difficulty into as many parts as is feasible and necessary to resolve it.
Descartes, Rene

31.
Out of intense complexities intense simplicities emerge.
Churchill, Winston

32.
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
Churchill, Winston

33.
Manifest plainness, Embrace simplicity, Reduce selfishness, Have few desires.
Lao-tzu

34.
When the solution is simple, God is answering.
Einstein, Albert

35.
A taste for simplicity cannot endure for long.
Delacroix, Eugene

36.
Simplicity is natures first step, and the last of art.
Bailey, Philip James

37.
Seek simplicity, and distrust it.
Alfred North Whitehead

38.

Bennett, Tony

39.
Nothing is true, but that which is simple.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

40.
The noble simplicity in the works of nature only too often originates in the noble shortsightedness of him who observes it.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

41.
What is conceived well is expressed clearly.
Destouches, Philippe Nericault

Deupree, Richard

44.
The most complex things are the simplest.
Celeste, Agni

45.
The great things in life are what they seem to be. And for that reason, strange as it may sound to you, often are very difficult to interpret (understand). Great passion are for the great of souls. Great events can only be seen by people who are on a level with them. We think we can have our visions for nothing. We cannot. Even the finest and most self-sacrificing visions have to paid for. Strangely enough, that is what makes them fine.
Wilde, Oscar

46.
The height of cultivation runs to simplicity. Halfway cultivation runs to ornamentation.
Lee, Bruce

47.
Simplicity is a pleasant thing in children, or at any age, but it is not necessarily admirable, nor is affectation altogether a thing of evil. To be normal, to be at home in the world, with a prospect of power, usefulness, or success, the person must have that imaginative insight into other minds that underlies tact and savoir-faire, morality and beneficence. This insight involves sophistication, some understanding and sharing of the clandestine impulses of human nature. A simplicity that is merely the lack of this insight indicates a sort of defect.
Cooley, Charles Horton

48.
The obvious is that which is never seen until someone expresses it simply.
Gibran, Kahlil

49.
Behind the complicated details of the world stand the simplicities: God is good, the grown-up man or woman knows the answer to every question, there is such a thing as truth, and justice is as measured and faultless as a clock. Our heroes are simple: they are brave, they tell the truth, they are good swordsmen and they are never in the long run really defeated. That is why no later books satisfy us like those which were read to us in childhood --for those promised a world of great simplicity of which we knew the rules, but the later books are complicated and contradictory with experience; they are formed out of our own disappointing memories.
Greene, Graham

50.
Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not one bit simpler.
Albert Einstein
