Text Quotes
Our offense is like the pythagorean theorem: There is no answer  (Theorem Quotes) Share prices follow the theorem: hope divided by fear minus greed  (Theorem Quotes) One cannot really argue with a mathematical theorem  (Theorem Quotes) Those who have more power are liable to sin more; no theorem in geometry is more certain than this  (Theorem Quotes) I loved doing problems in school. I’d take them home and make up new ones of my own. But the best problem I ever found, I found in my local public library. I was just browsing through the section of math books and I found this one book, which was all about one particular problem - Fermat’s Last Theorem.  (Theorem Quotes) I just enjoy calculating, and it’s an instrument I know how to play. It’s almost an athletic performance, in a way. I was just watching the Olympics, and that’s how I feel when proving a theorem.  (Theorem Quotes) But my shift to the serious study of economics gradually weakened my belief in Major Douglas’s A B theorem, which was replaced in my thought by the expression MV = PT  (Theorem Quotes) I have discovered a truly remarkable proof of this theorem which this margin is too small to contain  (Theorem Quotes) A proven theorem of game theory states that every game with complete information possesses a saddle point and therefore a solution  (Theorem Quotes) As a boy of six I could understand the proof of a mathematical theorem more readily than that meat had to be cut with one’s knife, not one’s fork  (Theorem Quotes) Words are the children of reason and, therefore, can’t explain it. They really can’t translate feeling because they’re not part of it. That’s why it bugs me when people try to analyze jazz as an intellectual theorem. It’s not. It’s feeling  (Theorem Quotes) The axiom of conditioned repetition, like the binomial theorem, is nothing but a piece of insolence  (Theorem Quotes) The great poem and the deep theorem are new to every reader, and yet are his own experiences, because he himself recreates them  (Theorem Quotes) It gives me the same pleasure when someone else proves a good theorem as when I do it myself  (Theorem Quotes) Humanism... is not a single hypothesis or theorem, and it dwells on no new facts. It is rather a slow shifting in the philosophic perspective, making things appear as from a new centre of interest or point of sight  (Theorem Quotes) The scientist has to take 95 per cent of his subject on trust. He has to because he can’t possibly do all the experiments, therefore he has to take on trust the experiments all his colleagues and predecessors have done. Whereas a mathematician doesn’t have to take anything on trust. Any theorem that’s proved, he doesn’t believe it, really, until he goes through the proof himself, and therefore he knows his whole subject from scratch. He’s absolutely 100 per cent certain of it. And that gives him an extraordinary conviction of certainty, and an arrogance that scientists don’t have  (Theorem Quotes) This skipping is another important point. It should be done whenever a proof seems too hard or whenever a theorem or a whole paragraph does not appeal to the reader. In most cases he will be able to go on and later he may return to the parts which he skipped  (Theorem Quotes) A felicitous but unproved conjecture may be of much more consequence for mathematics than the proof of many a respectable theorem  (Theorem Quotes) Can the difficulty of an exam be measured by how many bits of information a student would need to pass it? This may not be so absurd in the encyclopedic subjects but in mathematics it doesn’t make any sense since things follow from each other and, in principle, whoever knows the bases knows everything. All of the results of a mathematical theorem are in the axioms of mathematics in embryonic form, aren’t they?  (Theorem Quotes) What philosophy worthy of the name has truly been able to avoid the link between poem and theorem?  (Theorem Quotes) For what is important when we give children a theorem to use is not that they should memorize it. What matters most is that by growing up with a few very powerful theorems one comes to appreciate how certain ideas can be used as tools to think with over a lifetime. One learns to enjoy and to respect the power of powerful ideas. One learns that the most powerful idea of all is the idea of powerful ideas  (Theorem Quotes) If you have to prove a theorem, do not rush. First of all, understand fully what the theorem says, try to see clearly what it means. Then check the theorem; it could be false. Examine the consequences, verify as many particular instances as are needed to convince yourself of the truth. When you have satisfied yourself that the theorem is true, you can start proving it  (Theorem Quotes) The elegance of a mathematical theorem is directly proportional to the number of independent ideas one can see in the theorem and inversely proportional to the effort it takes to see them  (Theorem Quotes) The world is anxious to admire that apex and culmination of modern mathematics: a theorem so perfectly general that no particular application of it is feasible  (Theorem Quotes) In many cases a dull proof can be supplemented by a geometric analogue so simple and beautiful that the truth of a theorem is almost seen at a glance  (Theorem Quotes) It is not so much whether a theorem is useful that matters, but how elegant it is  (Theorem Quotes) The analysis of variance is not a mathematical theorem, but rather a convenient method of arranging the arithmetic  (Theorem Quotes) No matter how correct a mathematical theorem may appear to be, one ought never to be satisfied that there was not something imperfect about it until it also gives the impression of being beautiful  (Theorem Quotes) To insure the adoration of a theorem for any length of time, faith is not enough, a police force is needed as well  (Theorem Quotes) I'm very well acquainted too with matters mathematical, I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical, About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news. With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse  (Theorem Quotes)
