You don't watch 'A Beautiful Mind' and say, 'This is how every mathematician is.'

Mathematics is, as it were, a sensuous logic, and relates to philosophy as do the arts, music, and plastic art to poetry.

There is no philosophy which is not founded upon knowledge of the phenomena, but to get any profit from this knowledge it is absolutely necessary to be a mathematician.

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

I've always considered myself more of a mathematician than a psychologist.

Need we add that mathematicians themselves are not infallible?

Mathematicians may flatter themselves that they possess new ideas which mere human language is as yet unable to express.

I have hardly ever known a mathematician who was capable of reasoning.
