"The pure logic of math is the hardest part. The answer you give is right or wrong. There is no way to prove that a wrong answer is all right like psychology and science where a mediocre idea could become a widely used theory. I have a capacity for logic but logic is so uncreative it has no boundaries between the right and wrong answers. It is this firm uncreative and often gullible logic which enslaves me to the hellish nightmare of Math."
Derek Hargens Manning High School- class of 1993 |
"There is a mystical virtue in right angles. There is an unspoken morality in seeking the level and the plumb. A house will stand, a table will bear weight, the sides of a box will hold together only if the joints are square and the members upright.
When the bubble is lined up between two marks etched in the glass tube of the level, you have aligned yourself with forces that hold the universe together." The Paradise of Bombs |
