Weyl, Hermann

"Mathematics is the most universal language and offers unique insight into the nature of reality."

"The mathematical world is built on logic, beauty, and profound truth."

"Symmetry, as wide or as narrow as you may define its meaning, is one idea by which man through the ages has tried to comprehend and create order, beauty, and perfection."

"The mind creates a small world out of its own substance."

"Knowledge is not something that can be transferred like cargo; it must be developed within the individual."

"Physics is concerned with that which is true about the physical world."

"In mathematics you don't understand things. You just get used to them."

"The human mind has first to construct forms, independently, before we can find them in things."

"God is a mathematician of a very high order; in fact, I would say that He is a mathematician."

"Symmetry is a vast subject, significant in art and nature. Mathematics is its systematic study."

"The principle of relativity, like all principles, requires careful and humble interpretation."

"We must abandon the illusion that the physical world is determined by immutable laws independent of human observation."

"Space and time are not given to us; we construct them."

"The most beautiful and profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical."

"Freedom is the soul of human dignity."

"Science is a collaboration between theory and observation, between mind and nature."

"Understanding requires both rigor and imagination."

"The criterion of truth is that it works, practically and theoretically."

"Nature speaks to us in the language of mathematics."

"Creation is a miracle; we must always keep that in mind."

"The pursuit of knowledge is a noble calling."

"Mathematics represents the victory of the human mind."

"Time is not absolute; it is woven into the fabric of spacetime itself."

"We are passengers on a small planet in an infinite universe."

"The laws of nature are mathematical."

"Doubt is the beginning of wisdom."

"Art and science are not opposites but complementary expressions of human understanding."

"The universe is geometrical at its deepest level."

"To create mathematics requires both logic and intuition."

"Perfect objectivity is a delusion; the observer cannot be separated from the observed."
