Design and technology should be the subject where mathematical brainboxes and science whizzkids turn their bright ideas into useful products.
James Brown is important because he decorates the clock correctly and he's good with lower mathematics. Don't get me wrong - he's good.
Not a lot of people know this, but I'm very good at mathematics. When I was an angry teenager, I used to sit in my room and do quadratic equations to calm myself down.
The love of the famous, like all strong passions, is quite abstract. Its intensity can be measured mathematically, and it is independent of persons.
Ever since the Enlightenment, people thought that we were living in a rational universe. They thought that God was a mathematician and that the function of the scientist was to figure out the mathematical rules whereby the universe was created.
The mathematical giant [Gauss], who from his lofty heights embraces in one view the stars and the abysses …
I think part of the appeal of mathematical logic is that the formulas look mysterious - You write backward Es!
Mathematical discoveries, like springtime violets in the woods, have their season which no man can hasten or retard.
The longer mathematics lives the more abstract - and therefore, possibly also the more practical - it becomes.
Quantum physics is a bit of a passion of mine. It's extraordinary. There's a branch of mathematics that is based on lunacy, and that's wonderful.
We often hear that mathematics consists mainly of 'proving theorems.' Is a writer's job mainly that of 'writing sentences?
Information theory began as a bridge from mathematics to electrical engineering and from there to computing.
There's something uniquely interesting about Buddhism and mathematics, particularly about quantum physics, and where they meet. That has fascinated us for a long time.
For most people, the major hurdle in grasping modern insights into the nature of the universe is that these developments are usually phrased using mathematics.
Nature doesn't feel compelled to stick to a mathematically precise algorithm; in fact, nature probably can't stick to an algorithm.
Creativity is essential to particle physics, cosmology, and to mathematics, and to other fields of science, just as it is to its more widely acknowledged beneficiaries - the arts and humanities.
One of the things that ultimately led me to leave mathematics and go into political science was thinking I could prevent nuclear war.
It has become almost a cliche to remark that nobody boasts of ignorance of literature, but it is socially acceptable to boast ignorance of science and proudly claim incompetence in mathematics.
No code of ethics and no effort are justifiable a priori in the face of the cruel mathematics that command our condition.
ZERO and Infinity both are very difficult to understand and explain but at the same time both are key assumption of Mathematics...
The shining star in the world is Shanghai. That's what CEOs from big companies say - 'if I want mathematical analytical work done, it's done in China.'
