梁實秋在《論散文》內談道散文是一種翻譯，把我們所想的翻譯成文字。一篇好的散文除了包括作者感情的滲入和心中的意念，文調的雅潔外，他亦認為在散文創作上，也要懂得如何割愛及要力求簡單。他認為散文的最高的理想也不過是“簡單”二字而已。要做到“簡單”二字絶非易事，而且先決條件是要懂得如何割愛。現論述梁實秋的割愛論及其主張散文應「簡單」的原則。 * 懂得割愛 梁實秋在《作文的三個階段》中談道，寫作文章必須經過的三個階段，首先是文思苦澀期，想像不充，聯想不快，分析不精，辭藻不富，這是造成文思不暢的主要原因；解決之道則在於多讀書，才能逹到思若湧泉的地步。其次是已度過思路艱澀期，進入到縱橫恣肆的境界。最後的階段是作文要懂得割愛。(1) 他認為寫作散文之最根本的原則，就是要「懂得割愛」。他深信「散文的美，不在乎你能寫出多少旁徵博引的故事穿插，亦不在多少典麗的辭句，而在能把心中的情思乾乾淨淨直接了當的表現出來。散文的美，美在適當。不肯割愛的人，在文章的大體上是要失敗的。」(2) 例如在《平山堂記》中，他用了敍述描寫，從屋內寫到屋外，從樓上寫到樓下，透過對「平山堂」的窄、擠、吵、人情等環境
