Math-thinking, I would say, encourages flipping and substituting letters in words (in the novel, one of the boys double-majors in math and myth, for example, and his twin cracks a joke about the father's handwriting that morphs cacography into dadography).

Mathematics is a body of knowledge, but it contains no truths.
Morris Kline

Math, it's a puzzle to me. I love figuring out puzzles.
Maya Lin

Math is the language of the universe. So the more equations you know, the more you can converse with the cosmos.
Neil deGrasse Tyson
Image
Mathematics is the abstract key which turns the lock of the physical universe.
John Polkinghorne

Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty-a beauty cold and austere ... yet sublimely pure and capable of stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show.
Bertrand Russell
Image
Mathematics compares the most diverse phenomena and discovers the secret analogies that unite them.
Joseph Fourier

Mathematics is a language
J. Willard Gibbs

Math is the beautiful, rich, joyful, playful, surprising, frustrating, humbling and creative art that speaks to something transcendental. It is worthy of much exploration and examination because it is intrinsically beautiful, nothing more to say. Why play the violin? Because it is beautiful! Why engage in math? Because it too is beautiful!
James Tanton

Mathematics is the queen of science, and arithmetic the queen of mathematics.
Carl Friedrich Gauss
Image
Mathematics takes us into the region of absolute necessity, to which not only the actual word, but every possible word, must conform.
Bertrand Russell
Image
Math . . . music .. . starry nights . . . These are secular ways of achieving transcendence, of feeling lifted into a grand perspective. It's a sense of being awed by existence that almost obliterates the self. Religious people think of it as an essentially religious experience but it's not. It's an essentially human experience.
Rebecca Goldstein

Mathematics is a more powerful instrument of knowledge than any other that has been bequeathed to us by human agency.
Rene Descartes
Image
Mathematics are well and good but Nature keeps dragging us around by the nose.
Albert Einstein

Rick Bayan

Math is sometimes called the science of patterns.
Ronald Graham

Mathematics as a science, commenced when first someone, probably a Greek, proved propositions about any things or about some things, without specifications of definite particular things.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
Math just wasn't my favorite. I didn't get how important math is and how it relates to real life. That's why I think I was turned off to it. Once I got down arithmetic and a little bit of algebra, I think I checked out. As I've gotten older, I think there's a lot more relation to math. English was my favorite subject.
Adam Rodriguez

Math is my favorite subject. It's the universal language. I like the fact that wherever you go in the whole world, two plus two will still be four.
Dakota Blue Richards

Mathematics is the handwriting on the human consciousness of the very Spirit of Life itself.
Claude Fayette Bragdon
Image
Mathematics is a world created by the mind of men, and mathematicians are people who devote their lives to what seems to me a wonderful kind of play!
Constance Reid

Mathematics is about making up rules and seeing what happens.
