Math Quotes Quotes for Courage And Enlightenment It is impossible to be a mathematicianwithout being a poet in soul. Sophia Kovalevskaia. http://www.plu.edu/~aast/mathquotes.htm
Extractions: Quotes for Courage And Enlightenment "It is impossible to be a mathematician without being a poet in soul." Sophia Kovalevskaia "Mathematics is no more the art of reckoning and computation than architecture is the art of making bricks or hewing, no more than painting is the art of mixing colors on a pallette, no more than geology is the art of breaking rocks, or the science of anatomy is the art of butchering." C.J. Keyser "It is a great nuisance that knowledge can only be aquired by hard work." W Somerset Maugham "We only think when confrounted with a problem." John Dewey "Failure is instructive. A person who thinks learns quite as much from his failures as his successes."

Extractions: Bistromathics itself is simply a revolutionary new way of understanding the behavior of numbers. Just as Einstein observed that space was not an absolute but depended on the observer's movement in space, and that time was not an absolute, but depended on the observer's movement in time, so it is now realized that numbers are not absolute, but depend on the observer's movement in restaurants.

It may will be doubted whether, in all the range of science, there is any field so fascinating to the explorer-so rich in hidden treasures-so fruitful in delightful surprises-as Pure Mathematics. -Lewis Carroll (Charles Dodgson) (1832-1898) Geometry in every proposition speaks a language which experience never dares to utter; and indeed of which she but halfway comprehends the meaning. -William Whewell The discoveries of Newton have done more for England and for the race, than has been done by whole dynasties of British monarchs. -Thomas Hill He is unworthy of the name of man who does not know that the diagonal of a square is incommensurable with its side. -Plato ...for no human inquiry can be called science unless it pursues its path through mathematical exposition and demonstration. -Leonardo da Vinci The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.

Extractions: John Adams : I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce, and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain. George Washington : The science of figures, to ascertain degree, is not only indispensably requisite in every walk of civilized life; but the investigation of mathematical truths accustoms the mind to method and correctness in reasoning, and is an employment peculiarly worthy of rational beings. In a clouded state of existence, where some many things appear precarious to the bewildered research, it is here that the rational faculties find a firm foundation to rest upon. From the high ground of mathematical and philosophical demonstration, we are insensibly led to far more nobler speculations and sublimer meditations.

Extractions: Thich Nhat Hanh Coming Home: Jesus and the Buddha as Brothers , Riverhead Books, New York (1999)): Scientists like to speak in the language of mathematics. There are many good mathematicians among us. Those of us who look at reality and speak about reality in the language of mathematics find that there is no other language that can speak as well as mathematics does about reality. When a mathematician admires reality in terms of mathematics, he has the tendency to believe God is the best mathematician. Otherwise how could things be arranged in such a way? If God is not a mathematician, how could he create things perfectly in this way? To know and to understand are two different things. When you climb a ladder, unless you abandon the lower step, you will not be able to climb to a higher one. Knowledge is like that. If you are not ready to let go of your knowledge, you cannot get a deeper knowledge of the same thing. The history of science proves this. You discover a new thing that helps you to understand better. Yet you are aware that some day you'll have to let go of that thing in order to discover something deeper and higher.

Math Quotes Education must begin with a view to helping the development of the child himselfand thereby serving as an increment to the potentialities of the people. http://www.angelfire.com/biz7/montessori/math_quotes.htm
Extractions: Synergy Montessori Materials Education must begin with a view to helping the development of the child himself and thereby serving as an increment to the potentialities of the people. The basis of the reform of education and society which is a necessity of our times must be built upon the scientific study of Man the Unknown. We can not create observers by saying, "observe," but by giving them the power and the means for this observation and these means are procured through education of the senses. He constructs his mind step by step till it becomes possessed of memory, the power to understand the ability to think. It is our privilege to lead him [the child] to observe the most important and most beautiful things of life in such a way that he does not lose energy and time in useless things, but shall find pleasure and satisfaction throughout his pilgrimage. As I stood in meditation among eager children, the discovery that it was knowledge they loved, and not the silly game, filled me with wonder and made me think of the greatness of the human soul! Either education contributes to a movement of universal liberation by showing the way to defend and raise humanity or it becomes like one of those organs which have shriveled up by not being used during the evolution of the organism.

Extractions: journey into a strange wilderness, where explorers often get lost." W. S. Anglin "I had a feeling once about Mathematics - that I saw it all. Depth beyond depth was revealed to me - the Byss and Abyss. I saw - as one might see the transit of Venus or even the Lord Mayor's Show - a quantity passing through infinity and changing its sign from plus to minus. I saw exactly why it happened and why the tergiversation was inevitable but it was after dinner and I let it go." Sir Winston Spencer Churchill, (1874-1965) "A formal manipulator in mathematics often experiences the discomforting feeling that his pencil surpasses him in intelligence." Howard W. Eves "One is hard pressed to think of universal customs that man has successfully established on earth. There is one, however, of which he can boast the universal adoption of the Hindu-Arabic numerals to record numbers. In this we perhaps have man's unique worldwide victory of an idea." Howard W. Eves

"It's as easy as 1, 2, 3... with a couple of details in between." "You just have to grit your teeth and make sure all the parts are in place." "I have a son right now who'se struggling with addition right now. Everybody's trying to teach him all sorts of things... we bought him a calculator. He gets the right number almost every time." "Fortunately, it's a first order linear differential equation. And, seeing its in the section on first order linear differential equations, it's fortunate." "That's a hard thing to do, to be simple."

I dont know, said Alice , I lost count. - Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832-1898) I know not what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me. - Isaac Newton (1642-1727) Whoever despises the high wisdom of mathematics nourishes himself on delusion and will never still the sophistic sciences whose only product is an eternal uproar. - Leonardo da Vinci Mathemata mathematicis scribuntur.
