technical skill is mastery of complexity, while creativity is mastery of simplicity.
the simplest things are often the truest.
simplicity is the final achievement. after one has played a vast quantity of notes and more notes, it is simplicity that emerges as the crowning reward of art.
as you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler; solitude will not be solitude, poverty will not be poverty, nor weakness weakness.
who is rich? he who rejoices in his portion.
you have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need.
be content with what you have, rejoice in the way things are. when you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
