Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.

- Albert Einstein

Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater. -Albert Einstein

While physics and mathematics may tell us how the universe began, they are not much use in predicting human behavior because there are far too many equations to solve. I'm no better than anyone else at understanding what makes people tick, particularly women.

-Stephen Hawking 

Equations are just the boring part of mathematics. I attempt to see things in terms of geometry.

-Stephen Hawking

If I were again beginning my studies, I would follow the advice of Plato and start with mathematics.

-Galileo Galilei

Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe.

-Galileo Galilei

Today's scientists have substituted mathematics for experiments, and they wander off through equation after equation, and eventually build a structure which has no relation to reality.

-Nikola Tesla

The science of operations, as derived from mathematics more especially, is a science of itself, and has its own abstract truth and value.

-Ada Lovelace

It is however pretty evident, on general principles, that in devising for mathematical truths a new form in which to record and throw themselves out for actual use, views are likely to be induced, which should again react on the more theoretical phase of the subject.

-Ada Lovelace
