Mathematics Quotes
-
In mathematics and science, there is no difference in the intelligence of men and women. The difference in genes between men and women is simply the Y chromosome, which has nothing to do with intelligence.
Christiane Nusslein-Volhard
-
Insofar as mathematics is true, it does not describe the real world. Insofar as it describes the real world, it is not true.
Albert Einstein
-
We've lost something that's been with us for so long, and something that drew a lot of us into mathematics. But perhaps that's always the way with math problems, and we just have to find new ones to capture our attention.
Andrew Wiles
-
Beyond the natural numbers, addition, multiplication, and mathematical induction are intuitively clear.
L. E. J. Brouwer
-
Mathematics is written for mathematicians.
Nicolaus Copernicus
-
I fly in dreams, I know it is my privilege, I do not recall a single situation in dreams when I was unable to fly. To execute every sort of curve and angle with a light impulse, a flying mathematics - that is so distinct a happiness that it has permanently suffused my basic sense of happiness.
Friedrich Nietzsche

At its heart, music is all higher mathematics.

It was as though applied mathematics was my spouse, and pure mathematics was my secret lover.
Edward Frenkel

Statistics is, or should be, about scientific investigation and how to do it better, but many statisticians believe it is a branch of mathematics. Now I agree that the physicist, the chemist, the engineer, and the statistician can never know too much mathematics, but their objectives should be better physics, better chemistry, better engineering, and in the case of statistics, better scientific investigation. Whether in any given study this implies more or less mathematics is incidental.
George E. P. Box

In my view, using technology too soon is definitely detrimental to education. I have often used the analogy 'it's like wine-tasting for first-graders'. One can be both a strong advocate of first-graders and wine-tasting, but strongly opposed to wine-tasting for first-graders.
George Andrews

The most complex object in mathematics, the Mandelbrot Set ... is so complex as to be uncontrollable by mankind and describable as 'chaos'.
Benoit Mandelbrot
-
It is well known that the central problem of the whole of modern mathematics is the study of transcendental functions defined by differential equations.
Felix Klein
