Mathematics is for lazy people.
Peter Hilton
Image
All mathematicians share... a sense of amazement over the infinite depth and the mysterious beauty and usefulness of mathematics.
Martin Gardner
Image
You can be creative in anything - in math, science, engineering, philosophy - as much as you can in music or in painting or in dance.
Ken Robinson
Image
The desire to explore thus marks out the mathematician. This is one of the forces making for the growth of mathematics. The mathematician enjoys what he already knows he is eager for more knowledge.
W. W. Sawyer
Image
Math proficiency is the gateway to a number of incredible careers that students may never have considered.
Danica McKellar
Image
We can and should place special emphasis on developing in our youth constructive incentives — a love of science, engineering, and math, so that they will want to take advanced scientific courses and thereby help meet the needs of our times.
Ezra Taft Benson
Image
Math is the language of the universe.
Lucas Grabeel
Image
Well, I had a lot of help from my father with the soldering and so on, and he was very good at math and was fascinated with computers, and so I was fortunate enough to have a bunch of exposure going all the way back to high school - this was in the 1960s.
Mitchell Kapor

Logic is one thing and commonsense another.
Elbert Hubbard
Image
A great deal of our math, science, philosophy, and everyday behavior presupposes that stability and equilibria are the default states, and everything else involves some perturbation. This is a mental model, a conceptual frame, a tacit belief, a presupposition - whatever you want to call it.
Dale Jamieson

In my own research when I'm working with equations, I never feel like I really understand what I'm doing if I'm solely relying on the mathematics for my understanding. I need to have a visual picture in my mind. I'm constantly translating from the math to some intuitive mind's-eye picture.
Brian Greene
Image
It's such a diversion to be constantly thinking of better ways I can teach people math that my hunger is for that really, for new ways of translating the beauty of it.
Danica McKellar
Image
I love math. I have little secret number tattoos everywhere. I design them.
Pauley Perrette
Image
To all of us who hold the Christian belief that God is truth, anything that is true is a fact about God, and mathematics is a branch of theology.
Hilda Phoebe Hudson
Image
With the Holy Mother as the centre of inspiration, a Math is to be established on the eastern bank of the Ganga. . . . On the other side of the Ganga a big plot of land will be acquired, where unmarried girls or Brahmacharini widows will live devout married women will also be allowed to stay now and then. Men will have no concern with this Math.
Swami Vivekananda

War can protect it cannot create.
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
In my opinion a mathematician, in so far as he is a mathematician, need not preoccupy himself with philosophy-an opinion, moreover, which has been expressed by many philosophers.
Henri Lebesgue
Image
To arrive at the simplest truth, as Newton knew and practiced, requires years of contemplation. Not activity Not reasoning. Not calculating. Not busy behaviour of any kind. Not reading. Not talking. Not making an effort. Not thinking. Simply bearing in mind what it is one needs to know.
George Spencer-Brown
Image
When I get a little money I buy books and if any is left I buy food and clothes.
Desiderius Erasmus
Image
To be sure, mathematics can be extended to any branch of knowledge, including economics, provided the concepts are so clearly defined as to permit accurate symbolic representation. That is only another way of saying that in some branches of discourse it is desirable to know what you are talking about.
James R Newman
Image
To deny, to believe, and to doubt well, are to a man what the race is to a horse.
Blaise Pascal
Image
In our travels, we have come across many equations--math for understanding the universe, for making music, for mapping stars, and also for tipping, which is important. Here is our favorite equation: Us plus Them equals All of Us. It is very simple math. Try it sometime. You probably won’t even need a pencil.
Libba Bray

Jesus was a pothead- long hair, beard, sandals, carpenter- do the math it all adds up. Living with twelve guys with no visible means of support.
Ralphie May

Obvious is the most dangerous word in mathematics.
