[on Cantor's Work:] The Finest Product Of

The Further A Mathematical Theory Is Developed, The More Harmoniously And Uniformly Does Its Construction Proceed, And Unsuspected Relations Are Disclosed Between Hitherto Separated Branches Of The Science.

I Didn't Work Especially Hard At Mathematics At School, Because I Knew That's What I'd Be Doing Later.

The Infinite! No Other Question Has Ever Moved So Profoundly The Spirit Of Man.

How Thoroughly It Is Ingrained In Mathematical Science That Every Real Advance Goes Hand In Hand With The Invention Of Sharper Tools And Simpler Methods Which, At The Same Time, Assist In Understanding Earlier Theories And In Casting Aside Some More Complicated Developments.

Begin With The Simplest Examples.
