The Transfinite Numbers Are In A Sense

Had Mittag-leffler Had His Way, I Should Have To Wait Until The Year 1984, Which To Me Seemed Too Great A Demand!

The Fear Of Infinity Is A Form Of Myopia That Destroys The Possibility Of Seeing The Actual Infinite, Even Though It In Its Highest Form Has Created And Sustains Us, And In Its Secondary Transfinite Forms Occurs All Around Us And Even Inhabits Our Minds.

The Essence Of Mathematics Lies Precisely In Its Freedom.

I Entertain No Doubts As To The Truths Of The Tranfinites, Which I Recognized With God's Help And Which, In Their Diversity, I Have Studied For More Than Twenty Years; Every Year, And Almost Every Day Brings Me Further In This Science.
