More From Duke Ellington

The simplicity that all this presupposes is not easy to attain. i find that my life constantly threatens to become complex and divisive. a life of prayer is basically a very simple life. this simplicity, however, is the result of asceticism and effort: it is not a spontaneous simplicity.
Prayer Simple Simplicity
Prison life taught him how little one can get along with, and what extraordinary spiritual freedom and peace such simplification can bring. i remember again, ironically, that today more of us in the world have the luxury of choice between simplicity and complication of life. and for the most part, we, who could choose simplicity, choose complication. war, prison, survival periods, enforce a form of simplicity on us. the monk and the nun choose it of their own free will. but if one accidentally finds it, as i have for a few days, one finds also the serenity it brings.
Spiritual War Luxury
The simplicity of the universe is very different from the simplicity of a machine. the simplicity of nature is not that which may be easily read but is inexhaustible. the last analysis can no wise be made.
Wise Nature Simplicity
When we are truly in this interior simplicity our whole appearance is franker, more natural. this true simplicity. . . makes us conscious of a certain openness, gentleness, innocence, gaiety, and serenity. o, how amiable this simplicity is! who will give it to me? i leave all for this. it is the pearl of the gospel.
Giving Simplicity Serenity
You may object that by speaking of simplicity and beauty i am introducing aesthetic criteria of truth, and i frankly admit that i am strongly attracted by the simplicity and beauty of mathematical schemes which nature presents us. you must have felt this too: the almost frightening simplicity and wholeness of the relationship, which nature suddenly spreads out before us.
Nature Truth Science
Simplicity is not the absence of clutter, that's a consequence of simplicity. simplicity is somehow essentially describing the purpose and place of an object and product. the absence of clutter is just a clutter-free product. that's not simple.
Philosophical Simple Simplicity
Similar Quotes
Christianity is called the religion of pity.
Philosophical Christianity Pity
I see no other conceivable strategy for the achievement of liberty than political action. religious or philosophical conversion of each man and woman is simply not going to work; that strategy ignores the problem of power, the fact that millions of people have a vested interest in statism and are not likely to give it up.... education in liberty is of course vital, but it is not enough; action must also be taken to roll back the state.
Religious Philosophical Taken
That one body may act upon another at a distance through a vacuum, without the mediation of any thing else, by and through which their action and force may be conveyed from one to another, is to me so great an absurdity, that i believe no man, who has in philosophical matters a compentent faculty of thinking, can ever fall into it.
Distance Fall Philosophical
Look at the paris commune. that was the dictatorship of the proletariat.
