Simplicity is not a simple thing.

how difficult it is to be simple

Simple can be harder than complex

Sometimes what you don’t do is just as important as what you do.

It's not easy, but it's simple.

It is far more difficult to be simple than to be complicated

But it's so hard to make things simple and so easy to make them complicated.

Anything not worth doing is worth not doing well.

But there are times in this harum-scarum world when figuring out the right thing to do is quite simple, but doing the right thing is simply impossible....

If a thing is not worth doing, it is not worth doing well.

If something is too hard, we move on to something else. What could be simpler than that?

Doing something unimportant well does not make it important.

Don’t confuse the complex with the difficult. Most situations are simple – many are just emotionally difficult to act upon.

There is nothing quite so useless, as doing with great efficiency, something that should not be done at all.
