After a great weekend of previews for The Understudy, and a nice night playing games with my family, I’m reminded of the importance of simplicity. (It seems to be a recurring theme in the giant pile of things I keep learning and re-learning over and over!)

The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.
-Hans Hofmann

Seek simplicity but distrust it.
-Alfred North Whitehead

Simplicity does not precede complexity, but follows it.
-Alan Perlis

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