The Prophet Gauss

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Mathematics is the art of giving the same name to different things.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

No theorem is an island.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Give us today our daily Ramsey Number. Thy kingdom come, thy bound be tight. On earth as it is in The Book.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

The spirit Logic gives us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

A theorem is not something proved long ago by someone else. Its history is that of us all, the transience and permanence of human endeavor.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Keep nothing in your mind which is not useful or beautiful.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Do not stand idly by the fallacies of your brother.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

May you find a delta for every epsilon.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Logic will give you whatever you prove to it.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

I am never satisfied until I have said as much as possible in a few words, and writing briefly takes far more time than writing at length.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Mathematical Analysis is as extensive as nature herself.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Search the proofs, for in them you have Logic everlasting.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Give us today our daily Ramsey Number. Thy kingdom come, thy bound be tight. On earth as it is in The Book.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

May logic fill you with all joy and peace, and may you overflow with hope by the power of representation theory.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

True and False are not equal, even though the abundance of fallacy may amaze you; so heed Logic, your root of wits, so that you may prosper!

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

When you prove the snake lemma, you know the truth and all your fetters fall away.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Logic is the foundation of the certainty of all the knowledge we acquire.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

If you cannot fix your mind upon Logic without deviation, follow the compact principles of Lefschetz and Brouwer: develop a fixed point.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Regard mathematics as a mine rich in gems of inestimable value. Education can, alone, cause it to reveal its treasures.

[The Prophet Gauss @TheProphetGauss]

Neither in mathematics nor anywhere else is there any happiness in store for he who does not doubt.
