@ufried I like the quote of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
"Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."
@achtsam indeed. also one of my favorite quotes - would have fitted nicely in this post, too. unfortunately, forgot it. thx for mentioning it!
