Just found a file with some quotes about simplicity I noted some time ago. I thought it’d be nice to save them here!
The first one comes from a well-known writer:
“Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” - Antoine de Saint-ExupΓ©ry
And now from a painter:
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” - Leonardo da Vinci
Finally, but not least, from the Agile Manifesto:
“Simplicity - the art of maximizing the amount of work not done - is essential.” - Agile Manifesto
