+[Jim Simons](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Simons_(mathematician)) on Beauty:
+
+> "Be guided by beauty. I really mean that. Pretty much everything I’ve done has had an aesthetic component, at least to me. Now you might think ‘well, building a company that’s trading bonds, what’s so aesthetic about that?’ But, what’s aesthetic about it is doing it right. Getting the right kind of people, and approaching the problem, and doing it right […] it’s a beautiful thing to do something right."

 Dwight D. Eisenhower on Focus (1961 address to the Century Association):
