Benoit Mandelbrot Quotes
I conceived, developed and applied in many areas a new geometry of nature, which finds order in chaotic shapes and processes.

Today you might say that, until fractal geometry became organized, my life had followed a fractal orbit.

If agricultural land be left uncultivated, in a few years the jungle returns, and signs are not lacking that a similar danger is always lying in wait for the fields of thought, which, by the labour of three hundred years, have been cleared and brought into cultivation by men of science.
