Howdy!
I would like this quote explained or at least if you can tell me what you think it means.

Can simple be harder than complex? Simplicity is not always easier? I tried to play the chicken dance on my accordion and I must say that it is not as easy as you would think. I can play the tune but even if it is built on simplicity it has its difficulty. It take years of training to be good at the simple stuff.

I can't see the image you posted. Hm. I'm not sure if that's a just me thing, or an everyone thing...my laptop isn't behaving lately, so it could be a just me thing.

I can see it, so it might just be you?

That's been one of my mantras - focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it's worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.
