“It is a simple thing, a name. We are given one, we grow in to it, we bear it. Simple for the rest of creation.”

“Life is not complex. We are complex. Life is simple, and the simple thing is the right thing.”

“As we live and as we are, Simplicity - with a capital "S" - is difficult to comprehend nowadays. We are no longer truly simple. We no longer live in simple terms or places. Life is a more complex struggle now. It is now valiant to be simple: a courageous thing to even want to be simple. It is a spiritual thing to comprehend what simplicity means.”

“There is a tonic strength, in the hour of sorrow and affliction, in escaping from the world and society and getting back to the simple duties and interests we have slighted and forgotten. Our world grows smaller, but it grows dearer and greater. Simple things have a new charm for us, and we suddenly realize that we have been renouncing all that is greatest and best, in our pursuit of some phantom.”

“The truth is WE ALL ACHE.WE ALL HAVE GROWING PAINSand wonder if WE AREOKAY adn enough + loved.THE THING IS - WE ARE. REALLY.WITHOUT the silver shoesand lepord print sheet.WE ARE ENOUGH WITHOUTall the things we buyto make us much morethan we are or need to be we are simple and complex and rare as is.”

“If the brain were so simple we could understand it, we would be so simple we couldn't.”
