In any field whatsoever, perfection is finally attained not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing to remove.

For me it means:In anything, the less, the better!

What Sean offers is very different from what Antoine's words quoted here offer If the thought needs changed to make it make sense, or even perfect, then it aint a very good thought, I think But he specifically said “NOT when there is nothing more to add…”

There is nothing puzzling about this. The not seldom overrated Antoine just managed to make a truism sound tricky. Or would anyone find following sentence tricky? Perfection is achieved when there is nothing more to add and nothing left to take away. The peace of the night. Ahem, why would even Andrew find this puzzling.
