I do believe in simplicity. It is astonishing as well as sad, how many trivial affaris even the wisest things he must attend to in a day; how singular an affair he things he must omit. Wehn the mathematician would solve a difficult problem, he first frees the equation of all encombrances, and reduces it to its simplest terms. So simpmly the problem of life, distinguish the necessary and the real. Probe the earth to see where your main roots run.
-Henry David Thoreau to H.G.O. Blake, 27 March 1848
