The existence of mysterious relations between all these different domains is the most striking and delightful feature of mathematics (having no rational explanation).

Celestial mechanics is the origin of dynamical systems, linear algebra, topology, variational calculus and symplectic geometry.

Mathematics is a part of physics. Physics is an experimental science, a part of natural science. Mathematics is the part of physics where experiments are cheap.

Cryptography has generated number theory, algebraic geometry over finite fields, algebra, combinatorics and computers.

Hydrodynamics procreated complex analysis, partial differential equations, Lie groups and algebra theory, cohomology theory and scientific computing.

Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what is right.

Stop looking back when your future is ahead of you

That is an important part of my success. Another big part of my success is that I hated not to finish a race.

I was born in 1929, that was the depression, so the golf course was manned by my father and two guys, they worked for my dad and they took me with them everywhere they went. And it was fun.

I've always been able to recount things and I have a really good memory about dialog and what people have said before and this and that.

I'm not interested until I see their execution.

We think our PS3 game is better than their Xbox game.

In our culture, we grow up thinking that failure is a terrible thing, that it's a setback, or worse, the end. Often it turns out to be the beginning of something better.

Don't think small and expect to have a big life.

The characters have desperation and it doesn't work out for everyone. Maybe it's not fair because I'm responding to the adaptations that smooth out the edges.
