Mathematical Intelligence

Famous quotes containing the words mathematical and/or intelligence:

    All science requires mathematics. The knowledge of mathematical things is almost innate in us.... This is the easiest of sciences, a fact which is obvious in that no one’s brain rejects it; for laymen and people who are utterly illiterate know how to count and reckon.
    Roger Bacon (c. 1214–c. 1294)

    Having intelligence is not as important as knowing when to use it, just as having a hoe is not as important as knowing when to plant.
    Chinese proverb.
