Gottlob Frege Quotes

Arithmetic has began to totter Picture Quote #1
What are numbers? What is the nature of arithmetical truth? Picture Quote #1
The aim of scientific work is truth. While we internally recognise something as true, we judge, and while we utter judgements, we assert Picture Quote #1
... one can hardly deny that mankind has a common store of thoughts which is transmitted from one generation to another Picture Quote #1
It is possible, of course, to operate with figures mechanically, just as it is possible to speak like a parrot: but that hardly deserves the names of thought. It only becomes possible at all after the mathematical notation has, as a result of genuine thought, been so developed that it does the thinking for us, so to speak Picture Quote #1
Every good mathematician is at least half a philosopher, and every good philosopher is at least half a mathematician Picture Quote #1

It really is worth the trouble to invent a new symbol if we can thus remove not a few logical difficulties and ensure the rigour of the proofs. But many mathematicians seem to have so little feeling for logical purity and accuracy that they will use a word to mean three or four different things, sooner than make the frightful decision to invent a new word Picture Quote #1
I compare arithmetic with a tree that unfolds upwards in a multitude of techniques and theorems while the root drives into the depths Picture Quote #1
There is more danger of numerical sequences continued indefinitely than of trees growing up to heaven. Each will some time reach its greatest height Picture Quote #1
