Complexity and profundity have been equated by the academic culture just as fame and significance have been conflated by the popular culture. Fame and significance have nothing to do with one another and complexity and profundity have nothing to do with one another.
Dennis Prager
Image
Complexity is acceptable as long as it is intelligible and necessary. We want to avoid needless complications.
Donald A. Norman
Image
Complexity means distracted effort. Simplicity means focused effort.
Edward de Bono
Image
Complexity is not a cause of confusion. It is a result of it.
Jeff Hawkins
Image
Complexity is looking at interacting elements and asking how they form patterns and how the patterns unfold. It's important to point out that the patterns may never be finished. They're open-ended. In standard science this hit some things that most scientists have a negative reaction to. Science doesn't like perpetual novelty.
W. Brian Arthur
Image
Complexity - limits competition.
Seth Klarman
Image
Complexity begets ambiguity, which yields in all ways to prejudice and avarice. Complication does not so much defeat Men as arm them with fancy.
R. Scott Bakker
Image
Complexity kills. It sucks the life out of developers, it makes products difficult to plan, build and test, it introduces security challenges, and it causes end-user and administrator frustration.
Ray Ozzie
Image
Complexity is your enemy. Any fool can make something complicated. It is hard to keep things simple.
Richard Branson
Image
Complexity serves nothing but our ego. Be able to say what you do in a way that people can understand.
Chris Brogan
Image
Complexity creates confusion, simplicity focus.
Edward de Bono
Image
Complexity and intelligence grow from simplicity, not from greater complexity.
Brian Eno
Image
Complexity is the enemy of clarity
Andy Stanley
Image
Complexity assertions have to be part of the interface
Alexander Stepanov
Image
Complexity and obscurity have professional value - they are the academic equivalents of apprenticeship rules in the building trades. They exclude the outsiders, keep down the competition, preserve the image of a privileged or priestly class. The man who makes things clear is a scab. He is criticized less for his clarity than for his treachery.
John Kenneth Galbraith
Image
Complexity is not good. People don't understand the elegance of simplicity.
Gordon Willis
Image
Complexity is the enemy of execution!
Tony Robbins
Image
Complexity has nothing to do with intelligence, simplicity does.
Lawrence Bossidy

Being a food show and being me, I always kicked it up a notch, which means I would always elevate the spice level or the complexity of a particular dish. So, it was always like we're going to kick this up a little bit.
Emeril Lagasse

I know from my own experience that there is much more to 'intelligence' than an IQ number. In fact, I hesitate to believe that any system could really reflect the complexity and uniqueness of one person's mind, or meaningfully describe the nature of his or her potential.
Daniel Tammet
Image
I love character roles. I'm happier in them. I look for roles that have some kind of complexity.
Emily Blunt
Image
The continuous networks of neural circuitry accomplish their functions using multiple, independently discovered strategies. The brain lends itself well to the complexity of the world, but poorly to clear-cut cartography.
David Eagleman
Image
Lenelle Moïse's poems render the abstract - policy, disaster, history, diaspora - specific. Her words make the political not just personal, but corporeal: the beautiful system of the human body as canvas and subject, perfect in all its attendant complications and complexity, and still ruled, undeniably, by a warm, beating heart.
Erin McKeown

If there is anything the artist or a true work of art teaches us, it is that variety and complexity really increase the unity, and that to achieve unity within a great variety of complexity is a greater achievement and more satisfying piece of art than to achieve unity with just a few elements, which is relatively easily achieved.
