Famous quotes containing the word mathematics:

    “I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.”
    —John Adams (1735–1826)

    “In mathematics he was greater
    Than Tycho Brahe, or Erra Pater:
    For he, by geometric scale,
    Could take the size of pots of ale;
    Resolve, by sines and tangents straight,
    If bread and butter wanted weight;
    And wisely tell what hour o’ th’ day
    The clock doth strike, by algebra.”
    —Samuel Butler (1612–1680)
