Nature is pleased with simplicity. And nature is no dummy

Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.

Simplicity is the best luxury, because you don’t have to labour to maintain it.

The seed of a tree has the nature of a branch or twig or bud. It is a part of the tree, but if separated and set in the earth to be better nourished, the embryo or young tree contained in it takes root and grows into a new tree.

Truth is ever to be found in simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.

This most beautiful system [The Universe] could only proceed from the dominion of an intelligent and powerful Being.
