““Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away” - Antoine de Saint Exupéry. If you’ve ever invited me do some pair programming with you, you probably have a good idea what this quote is all about. I often wind up asking questions like:
* Why do you need this boolean named retVal? Could it be eliminated the use of early return statements?

* I noticed that this method has parts that are nested five levels of braces deep. Is there anything we can do to reduce that?”

‘‘I am cheap and I am a loser,” the 49-year-old Accokeek author said Jan. 21 as he pointed to his simple, soiled shirt and blue jeans. ‘‘Look at me. Do I look like an author? I am a mess.”"

From photocritic.org:
"It can often be incredibly tempting to try and fit more information into a photograph. Understandably so - wherever you turn, you find a barrage of information. Minimalism truly is a lost art in photography, and you’d be surprised to find that it’s actually quite difficult to get right."

"I have been admiring a friend’s house ever since he showed me the photos of his new home. Therefore, I had to admire his chosen decors for Christmas, too. As he said, ‘he decors are very simple and elegant and most of all, traditional.’"
