Wisdom of Bertrand Russell
August 8, 2020 – 7:58 pm
Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty — a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of paintings or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show. — Bertrand Russell (1902)
Euclid, the one and only one
August 8, 2020 – 6:24 pm

Has looked on Beauty bare Fortunate they
Who, though once only and then but far away,
Have heard her massive sandal set on stone.
— Edna St. Vincent Millay (1923)
Wisdom of Paul Erdos

If numbers are not beautiful, I don’t know what is. Paul Erdos
Wisdom of Bill Thurston, Fields Medallist, Topologist
