More quotes by Marston Morse
But mathematics is the sister, as well as the servant, of the arts and is touched with the same madness and genius.
Marston Morse
Mathematics are the result of mysterious powers which no one understands, and which the unconscious recognition of beauty must play an important part. Out of an infinity of designs a mathematician chooses one pattern for beauty's sake and pulls it down to earth.
Marston Morse
