Quote by Brouwer, Luitzen Egbertus Jan

"Mathematics is not about numbers, equations, computations, or algorithms: it is about understanding."

"The intuitionist does not accept the axiom of the excluded middle."

"Creating mathematics is like creating poetry or music."

"The act of intuitively creating a mathematical system requires freedom of thought."

"We're not just after treasure. We're preserving history."

"The mind is humanity's greatest tool."

"A tidy room reflects a tidy mind."

"You can learn a lot about a person by how they keep their space."
