The Infinite Is Only A Manner Of

There Have Been Only Three Epoch-making Mathematicians, Archimedes, Newton, And Eisenstein.

It May Be True That People Who Are Merely Mathematicians Have Certain Specific Shortcomings; However That Is Not The Fault Of Mathematics, But Is True Of Every Exclusive Occupation. Likewise A Mere Linguist, A Mere Jurist, A Mere Soldier, A Mere Merchant, And So Forth. One Could Add Such Idle Chatter That When A Certain Exclusive Occupation Is Often Connected With Certain Specific Shortcomings, It Is On The Other Hand Always Free Of Certain Other Shortcomings.

I Confess That Fermat's Theorem As An Isolated Proposition Has Very Little Interest For Me, Because I Could Easily Lay Down A Multitude Of Such Propositions, Which One Could Neither Prove Nor Dispose Of.

The Enchanting Charms Of This Sublime Science Reveal Only To Those Who Have The Courage To Go Deeply Into It.

No Contradictions Will Arise As Long As Finite Man Does Not Mistake The Infinite For Something Fixed, As Long As He Is Not Led By An Acquired Habit Of Mind To Regard The Infinite As Something Bounded.
