Question about hereditary $C^*$-algebra.

Can anyone give me a relatively simple proof or Some reference for the following fact.(I know that there is a proof of this theorem in Gerard J. Murphy'book: "$C^*$-Algebras and Operator Theory", but I'm sure that there should be a simple proof of this.

Every hereditary $C^*$-subalgebra of a simple $C^*$-algebra is also simple!

Maybe this is easy for someone, but it makes me confused for a long time. I am a novice!
