But then, even with sex, I'm more in the school of less is more in movies.

Less is more. You should wear earrings or bracelets, but not both.

I've always been the king of silence. I've always been a minimalist comedian. I've taken my influence from Jack Benny, who was the king of that... I've always done 'less is more.'

Less is more' may be a cliche, but that doesn't mean musicians often heed that advice. Swedish singer-songwriter Kristian Matsson, who performs and records as The Tallest Man on Earth, follows it religiously.

Less is more. I would notice that when I did my makeup, I was putting on more makeup than they did on me at shoots. A little goes a long way, so I definitely learned how to wear less.

If I could go back in time and give Rookie C.J one piece of wisdom, it would be that sometimes less is more. Off the court, sometimes it's just better to shut up and be quiet.

I feel like my style's always been influenced by 'less is more.' The coolest styles are kind of simple and classic, like a white T-shirt and jeans. Maybe you have a cool belt and cool shoes, but everything else you keep simple.

I'm definitely of the 'less is more' mentality, and what I really appreciate is that fragrance is chemical, and it changes with your body throughout the day. It's a very deeply personal thing. One smell on one person isn't the same on another, and I appreciate the uniqueness of that experience.

When you're young, the temptation is maybe to think, 'More is more.' But a lot of the time less is more.

With grooming, less is more. I like to smell good, so will use a fragrance like Boss Bottled. I don't overdo it, but I moisturise daily, too.

Daniel Sturridge

On the fragrance side, I think it's important that it's not overpowering, a fragrance on a man or a woman. I think it's important to see the person before you smell them. Less is more.

David Beckham

Nuts have gotten a bad rap because of their high fat content. But their protein, heart-healthy fats, high fibre, and antioxidant content earn them a place in your daily diet. I often say 'less is more,' and portion control is key to healthfully enjoying nuts.

It was a whole new attitude: no makeup, less is more... the '90s were fun!

It has taken me so long to understand my skin, but the formula that works best for me is, gentle and less is more. But I do cleanse my skin well at night with a good natural cleanser by Dr. Hauschka or Avalon Organics.

Red lipstick aside, I firmly believe that less is more in terms of make-up.

Spare me the carefully thought out accessorising that is supposed to look casually thrown on, while in actuality, hours have been spent on the picking and choosing of said jewellery, scarves, etc. Unless you are Keith Richards and can absolutely pull it off, less is more.

My idea of sexy is that less is more. The less you reveal the more people can wonder.

The biggest thing I have learnt is not to overdo make-up - less is more.

I think less is more when it comes to make-up; this really helps achieve a lighter complexion. Heavy make-up creates a canvas and can dull the skin.

Francois Nars

Up Think Thin

Sometimes it's about less is more. It's about the seed. Thinking about this gigantic tree that you think is so beautiful but it started with this just seed.


Fred Durst

I think that if you can convey a kind of a complexity, a mystery, a truth in stillness, that, to me, is really worth striving for, and I totally agree with Michael Fassbender in that less is more. If it's going on inside you, the camera will find it.


Gabriel Byrne

I guess he wanted to see a little more sexual activity because in real life, in bed I think less is more and let the woman come to me. Frankly, I don't even need a woman there.


Garry Shandling

I'm inspired by artists who use a limited palette, like painter Piet Mondrian, and the White Stripes, two musicians who create an incredible sound. Our food is starting to go back to a 'less is more' style.


Graham Elliot

It's easy to get sidetracked with technology, and that is the danger, but ultimately you have to see what works with the music and what doesn't. In a lot of cases, less is more. In most cases, less is more.


Herbie Hancock

I believe how you measure a good movie is how many times you can see it. With comedies, I like to be a producer, because comedies can get corny and go off track real fast. I'm always the 'less is more' guy when it comes to a scene. So I'ma be the one who will keep it grounded.


Ice Cube

I'm from the 'less is more' school. I had to be in the 'more is more' zone with 'Dallas Buyers Club', so I was out of my comfort zone, but I had to trust that.


Jean-Marc Vallee

Less is more! I don't wear makeup if I don't have to.


Jennifer Nettles

Actually 'Soon' has more than the Left Behind series, but I really believe less is more.


Jerry B. Jenkins

When it comes to jewellery, less is more as you get older. Just before I go out to a party, I look at myself in the mirror and take off half of the jewellery I'm wearing. Anything that rattles or clanks is just too dowager duchess.


Jerry Hall

Pat Summerall personified less is more. His play-by-play was so bare bones but so great because he had a great, deep-toned voice.


Joe Buck

I think less is more when it comes to kissing in the movies.


Julia Roberts

My mom is very much about 'less is more.' She showed me how to use makeup to enhance your beauty but not to change your face, which I think is important.


Kaia Gerber

I think less is more. Sephora has these nude themes, which is like 'no make-up' make-up.


Kriti Sanon

I've learned that whether it's with your skin or your hair, less is more. People go and do so much to it, I don't think that's good. Too much product is not good, so I think that's probably the best thing. And not the most expensive thing is the best thing. That's for sure. I've learned that the hard way.


Kyle Richards

I think a girl always needs a cardigan, and I tend to go for the sparkles. I have a minimum of 50 embellished cardigans. I'm not a believer in less is more; I'm sort of a believer in more is necessary.


L'Wren Scott

I really believe less is more. When you get older, too much makeup can be ageing, and when you're young, you should enjoy the fact your skin is free from lines and wrinkles rather than overloading it with products.


Louise Nurding

Less is more.


Ludwig Mies van der Rohe

My mum always encouraged me that less is more, make-up wise. I think that's why I feel more confident when I have a fresh and natural face.


Maia Mitchell

A lot of people tend to chew up the scenery. I'm a firm believer in less is more, especially on the big screen.


Mark Wahlberg

I think sometimes less is more. I don't think it helps to overdo exercising - I think you need to do it to keep your body healthy and fit, but there is a fine line between, you know, healthy and obsession. You have to build your foundation first. Your brain has to sort of connect to your body.


Martha Hunt

In radio, you are the game, so to speak - you have to describe every aspect. In TV, I've always felt less is more, and it's really a question of my setting up the color analyst more than anything else.


Marv Albert

According to me, the key is 'less is more.' For instance, if the print is the star of your outfit, don't accessorize too much. And if you have a gorgeous piece of jewellery, allow it to shine through.


Masaba Gupta

I really believe in less is more in terms of makeup. I try not to wear too much foundation. I like to see my skin coming through. I like to see my freckles. I just think that's the most youthful look.


Michelle Monaghan

Sometimes less is more when it comes to workout routines.


Nina Agdal

I'm very classic and structural. I love clean lines and interesting, modern details. But I'm all about being streamlined - less is more.


Nina Garcia

Basically, less is more when it comes to film.


Perdita Weeks

I sometimes think less is more. If you cut yourself in too many places, it is hard to execute.


Philip Green

For me, less is more. I don't often wear makeup, but when I do, a little concealer and some powder go a long way.


Philomena Kwao

I hate to hear 'Less is more.' It's a crock of crap.
