1. People die, but the cause lasts forever. Cauchy
2. Numbers rule the universe. Pythagoras
3. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Einstein
4. Mathematics is the highest form of all knowledge. Plato
5. Mathematics is a variety of proof techniques. Wittgenstein
6. Mathematics is the study of abstract structures. Bourbaki School
7. Mathematics is the study of quantitative relationships and spatial forms in real life. Engels
8. Mathematicians are essentially obsessed. Without them, there would be no mathematics. Nuvales
9. The driving force for mathematical inventions and creations is not reasoning, but the use of imagination. De Morgan
10. What delights me most in mathematics are those things that can be proven. Russell
11. The reason why I can see farther than Descartes is because I stand on the shoulders of giants. Newton
12. Mathematics is a rational spirit that enables human thinking to be used to the most perfect degree. Klein
13. A science can only achieve true perfection when it successfully uses mathematics. Marx
14. Mathematics is a deductive science, which is based on a set of postulates and logical reasoning to obtain conclusions. Chen Shengshen
15. Pure mathematics can be practical and useful, and applied mathematics can also be elegant and elegant. Halmos
16. No matter how abstract any branch of mathematics is, it will one day be applied to the real world. Lobachevsky
17. Those who insist that there is no beauty in mathematical science are wrong. The main forms of beauty are order, symmetry and clarity. Aristotle
18. Genius is not trustworthy, intelligence is unreliable, and it is unimaginable to make great scientific inventions by chance. Hua Luogeng
19. Mathematics is a tool of knowledge and the source of other knowledge tools. All sciences that deal with order and measurement are related to mathematics. ― Descartes
20. The universe is huge, the particles are tiny, the speed of rockets, the ingenuity of chemical engineering, the changes in the earth, the mysteries of living things, and the complexity of daily life. Mathematics is used everywhere. Hua Luogeng
21. Only with the vigorous development of mathematics can a country show the strength of its national foundation. The development of mathematics is closely related to the highest good and the prosperity of the country. Napoleon
22. Another reason why mathematics has a high reputation is that mathematics enables natural science to achieve theoremization and gives natural science a certain degree of reliability. Einstein
23. A mathematician is like a lover who gives a mathematician the smallest principle, and he will lead to a result that you must admit, and from this to another. Fortanelli
24. A philosopher must also learn mathematics, because he must jump out of the vast sea of ??ever-changing phenomena and grasp the true essence. and because it is the shortest way to the transition of the soul to truth and eternity. Plato
25. In the evaluation of mathematical theorems, aesthetic standards are more important than logical standards and practical standards: when evaluating mathematical ideas, whether the ratio of beauty and elegance is strict and correct, compared with Whether it's useful or not is far more important. Steen
26. A kind of peculiar beauty rules the kingdom of mathematics. This kind of beauty is not as similar as the beauty of art and the beauty of nature, but she deeply infects people's hearts and inspires them. Appreciation of her is very similar to the beauty of art. Coomer
27. When I listen to others explaining certain mathematical problems, I often find it difficult or even impossible to understand. At this time, I thought, can the problem be simplified? Often, after you finally figure it out, it's actually just a simpler problem. Hilbert
28. Sometimes, you fail to get the simplest and most beautiful proof at the beginning, but it is such a proof that can go deep into the wonderful connection of higher arithmetic truths. This is what motivates us to continue research and what best enables us to discover. Gaussian
