Mathematics: the language of God transliterated into hieroglyphs by dyslexic chimpanzees. One knows it means something terribly important, but even when one has the key to understanding one is led astray by errors in transcription.

»11:15, restate my assumptions: 1. mathematics is the language of nature. 2. everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers. 3. if you graph these numbers, patterns emerge. therefore: there are patterns everywhere in nature.«

Computer Scientists have a lot of respect for mathematics. In my experience, people who enjoy advanced CS also enjoy solving math problems, particularly proofs. However, Mathematicians have no respect whatsoever for Computer Science.

One teaches scientists about music easiest with the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, because of its mathematical perfection.

The view that all things are defined by mathematics may be true, but seems a cold and unimaginative way to view the world.

I used to hate maths at school, yet later I started to like it. It happened to stand out of the merged nonsense the other subjekts became, pulpified by chippy curriculars and unmotivated teachers.
It became interesting when some year I had a teacher
who was pretty new in his job, he wasn't yet worn out and emotionaly blunted by a lifetime of frustrating repetitions a teacher's career consists of. He managed to make me feel math, to make me feel what great insights lie in it.
