Math Quotes

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 painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show. The true spirit of delight, the exaltation, the sense of being more than Man, which is the touchstone of the highest excellence, is to be found in mathematics as surely as in poetry.

-Bertrand Russel ("Why You Should Become a Math Major")


Do not worry about your difficulties in mathematics, I assure you that mine are greater.

-Albert Einstein


There exists, if I am not mistaken, an entire world which is the totality of mathematical truths, to which we have access only with our mind, just as a world of physical reality exists, the one like the other independent of ourselves, both of divine creation.

-Charles Hermite (Begin philosophical debate here ...)


Mathematics knows no races or geographic boundaries; for mathematics, the cultural world is one country.

-David Hilbert
