Important to note as well, is that "simple" isn't "lesser" or "dumber", it can be "more" and "wider", yet still "simpler".
Expectedly, Rich Hickey explains it best, watch the "Simple Made Easy" talk if you haven't before, one of the few talks I probably watch bi-yearly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxdOUGdseq4
Few things, concepts and ideas have changed as much of my programming mind as Hickey's talk and ultimately Clojure have done over the years.
Wish we had new amazing Hickey talks to link to, maybe it seems he's about the hang up the hammock perhaps?

He's speaking at the coming Clojure Conj, so there will be a new talk soon.
