I am indebted to my friend Sriram Kannan from Hong Kong who spotted this wonderful quote yesterday in FORBES 'thought for the day.'
"In character, in manners, in style, in all things, the supreme excellence is simplicity." - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, American Poet.
Amen and thank you Mr Longfellow - I'll drink to that!

I wrote that one down! I think I will start every project and every meeting with that quote! Thanks for passing it on. You too Sriram!
Thanks Kirk - quotes can be truly inspirational and this one fits the bill!
