Путь к сути вещей: Как понять мир с помощью математики
by |
|
“Great mathematicians are born with a brain fundamentally different from ours. We may as well be clear about the first one: no, mathematicians don’t think logically. It is in fact utterly impossible to think logically. Logic doesn’t help at all with thinking. We shall see later on what it is used for.”

“Contrairement à une idée reçue, la logique n’est pas l’ennemie de l’imagination. Elle est même sa grande alliée. La véritable ennemie de l’imagination, celle qui bloque la compréhension et nous fait nous sentir idiots, c’est toujours la peur.”

“Mathematical work isn’t a series of lightning insights and strokes of genius. It’s first of all a work of reeducation based on the repetition of the same exercises of imagination.”
