No such Thing as a Simple Truth
“The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.”
Oscar Wilde
I hate it when someone says “it’s simple.” (followed by whatever else they want to say). Oscar Wilde never said anything so extraordinarily true in his entire life. While I may sound slightly paranoid in this next comment .. but .. you should keep in mind most things that appear simple are rarely so and it behooves you to treat the simple as unsimple (not sure that is really a word).
Simple ideas are the most difficult to come up with, and the easiest to screw up.
in addition (although this may sound incredibly stupid .. or asinine … but) i sometimes believe truly simple ideas are very complicated to explain.
