Quotes

I prove a theorem and the house expands:
the windows jerk free to hover near the ceiling,
the ceiling floats away with a sigh.

Geometry - Rita Dove

There should be no such thing as boring mathematics.

- Edsger Dijkstra

A mathematician may say anything he pleases, but a physicist must at least partially be sane.

- J. Willard Gibbs
