“Simplicity is not the absence of clutter, that's a consequence of simplicity. Simplicity is somehow essentially describing the purpose and place of an object and product. The absence of clutter is just a clutter-free product. That's not simple.”
“Out of clutter, find simplicity.”
“Out of clutter, find simplicity. From discord, find harmony. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.”
“Hours slide by like minutes. The accumulated clutter of day-to-day existence — the lapses of conscience, the unpaid bills, the bungled opportunities, the dust under the couch, the inescapable prison of your genes — all of it is temporarily forgotten, crowded from your thoughts by an overpowering clarity of purpose and by the seriousness of the task at hand.”
“Simplicity is not the goal. It is the by-product of a good idea and modest expectations.”
“Simplicity before understanding is simplistic; simplicity after understanding is simple.- Edward De Bono”
“Simplicity is not an objective in art, but one achieves simplicity despite one’s self by entering into the real sense of things.”
