Mathematics Paper

Famous quotes containing the words mathematics and/or paper:

“Mathematics alone make us feel the limits of our intelligence. For we can always suppose in the case of an experiment that it is inexplicable because we don’t happen to have all the data. In mathematics we have all the data ... and yet we don’t understand. We always come back to the contemplation of our human wretchedness. What force is in relation to our will, the impenetrable opacity of mathematics is in relation to our intelligence.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)

“Shall quips and sentences and these paper bullets of the brain awe a man from the career of his humor? No, the world must be peopled.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
