A Fractal Is A Way Of Seeing

I Had Many Books And I Had Dreams Of All Kinds. Dreams In Which Were In A Certain Sense, How To Say, Easy To Make Because The Near Future Was Always Extremely Threatening.

In Mathematics And Science Definition Are Simple, But Bare-bones. Until You Get To A Problem Which You Understand It Takes Hundreds And Hundreds Of Pages And Years And Years Of Learning.

The Extraordinary Fact Is That The First Idea I Had Which Motivated Me, That Worked, Is Conjecture, A Mathematical Idea Which May Or May Not Be True. And That Idea Is Still Unproven. It Is The Foundation, What Started Me And What Everybody Failed To **** Prove Has So Far Defeated The Greatest Efforts By Experts To Be Proven.

Some Mathematicians Didn't Even Perceive Of The Possibility Of A Picture Being Helpful. To The Contrary, I Went Into An Orgy Of Looking At Pictures By The Hundreds; The Machines Became A Little Bit Better.

I Spent My Time Very Nicely In Many Ways, But Not Fully Satisfactory. Then I Became Professor In France, But Realized That I Was Not - For The Job That I Should Spend My Life In.
