“We have found a strange foot-print on the shores of the unknown. We have devised profound theories, one after another, to account for its origin. At last, we have succeeded in reconstructing the creature that
made the foot-print. And Lo! It is our own.”

James R. Newman, The World of Mathematics: A Four-Volume Set
