Less, but better There must be millions less of things, less words, less gestures, less of everything. But every word and every gesture will become more valuable.

Follies A Definition www.britannica.com Folly at Hagley Hall, Hereford and Worcester, built by Sanderson Miller, 1749–50 In architecture, a folly is a costly, generally nonfunctional building that was erected to enhance a natural landscape. Follies first gained popularity in England, and they were particularly in vogue during the 18th and early 19th centuries, when landscape design was dominated by the tenets of Romanticism.
