A Scientist Is A Mimosa When He

The Best That Gauss Has Given Us Was Likewise An Exclusive Production. If He Had Not Created His Geometry Of Surfaces, Which Served Riemann As A Basis, It Is Scarcely Conceivable That Anyone Else Would Have Discovered It. I Do Not Hesitate To Confess That To A Certain Extent A Similar Pleasure May Be Found By Absorbing Ourselves In Questions Of Pure Geometry.

Is There Not A Certain Satisfaction In The Fact That Natural Limits Are Set To The Life Of The Individual, So That At The Conclusion It May Appear As A Work Of Art?

It Is My Inner Conviction That The Development Of Science Seeks In The Main To Satisfy The Longing For Pure Knowledge.

Knowledge Is Realizing That The Street Is One Way; Wisdom Is Looking In Both Directions Anyway.

Matter Is Spirit Reduced To Point Of Visibility.
