Path to Perfection
As the writer, adventurer, artist, and aeronautical engineer Antoine de Saint-Exupry once put it, writing about the design of airplanes:
La perfection est atteinte non quand il ne reste rien ajouter, mais quand il ne reste rien enlever.
It means: “Perfection is attained not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing more to removeâ€.
Taken from ESR’s writing available here.
very well said …..but we should understand perfection is a one word that is used when we do not intend to!so taking this into account …..it should be taken with a pinch of salt.execellence should should have been the preffered word.
otherwise ti damn sure a thrilling idea.
