1 Quotable Quotes from famous Mathematicians

2 Pierre de Fermat ( ) To divide a cube into two other cubes, a fourth power or in general any power whatever into two powers of the same denomination above the second is impossible, and I have assuredly found an admirable proof of this, but the margin is too narrow to contain it.

3 David Hilbert ( ) Mathematics knows no races or geographic boundaries; for mathematics, the cultural world is one country.

4 Pierre-Simon Laplace ( ) What we know is not much. What we do not know is immense.

5 Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz ( ) The pleasure we obtain from music comes from counting, but counting unconsciously. Music is nothing but unconscious arithmetic.

6 Sir Isaac Newton ( ) If I have been able to see further, it was only because I stood on the shoulders of giants.

7 Blaise Pascal ( ) It is not certain that everything is uncertain. The more I see of men, the better I like my dog. I have made this letter longer than usual, because I lack the time to make it short.

8 Socrates ( BC) The understanding of mathematics is necessary for a sound grasp of ethics.

9 Wernher Von Braun ( ) Crash programs fail because they are based on theory that, with nine women pregnant, you can get a baby a month.

10 Seen on a bumper sticker Lottery: A tax on people who are bad at maths.

11 Rita Mae Brown ( ) The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four persons is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you.

12 Julian Lowell Coolidge ( ) [Upon proving that the best betting strategy for "Gambler's Ruin" was to bet all on the first trial.] It is true that a man who does this is a fool. I have only proved that a man who does anything else is an even bigger fool. In H. Eves Return to Mathematical Circles, Boston: Prindle, Weber and Schmidt, 1988.

13 Leonardo da Vinci ( ) He who loves practice without theory is like the sailor who boards ship without a rudder and compass and never knows where he may cast.
