Who said “Nothing is particularly hard if you subdivide it into small jobs.”?

“The noble simplicity in the works of nature only too often originates in the noble shortsightedness of him who observes it.”

“Behind the complicated details of the world stand the simplicities: God is good, the grown-up man or woman knows the answer to every question, there is such a thing as truth, and justice is as measured and faultless as a clock. Our heroes are simple: they are brave, they tell the truth, they are good swordsmen and they are never in the long run really defeated. That is why no later books satisfy us like those which were read to us in childhood --for those promised a world of great simplicity of which we knew the rules, but the later books are complicated and contradictory with experience; they are formed out of our own disappointing memories.”

“See it big, and keep it simple.”

“Seek simplicity but distrust it.”

“God always takes the simplest way.”

“History is more or less bunk.”

“Never complain. Never explain.”

“Don't find fault, find a remedy.”

“There is no such thing as no chance.”

“Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice.”

“Money is like an arm or leg -- use it or lose it.”
