Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will.Martin Luther King Jr.

Truth is ever to be found in simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.Isaac Newton
We are to admit no more causes of natural things than such as are both true and sufficient to explain their appearances.Isaac Newton
