Mathematcs and Science 
  1. Arithmetic is where numbers fly like pigeons in and out of your head —Carl Sandburg
  2. Every science, like a recurring decimal, has a beginning and no end —Anton Chekhov

    In his story, On The Way, Checkhov elaborates on this as follows: “Zoology has discovered thirty-five thousand five hundred different species of insects; chemistry can count sixty-five elements; if you were to add ten zeros to the right of each of these figures, zoology and chemistry would be no nearer the end of their labors than they are now’.

  3. Science is, like virtue, its own … great reward —Charles Kingsley
  4. Science is love with seeing eyes —Elbert Hubbard
  5. The study of mathematics is like climbing up a steep and craggy mountain; when once you reach the top, it fully recompenses your trouble, by opening a fine, clear and extensive prospect —Tryon Edwards
