Teaching, Learning, and Doing Mathematics |

"Philosophy is written in this grand book, the universe, which stands continually open to our gaze. But the book cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and read the letters in which it is composed. It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles, and other geometric figures without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it." --Galileo, 1623 (Got this from my son, Fall 2002) The effort to understand the universe is one of the very few things that lifts human life a little above the level of farce, and gives it some of the grace of tragedy. - Steven Weinberg

If you don't know where you're going, how are you gonna' know when you get there? - Yogi Berra
"The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be ignited." - Plutarch (circa 45 - 125 AD)
The purpose of computing is insight, not numbers (Hamming 1971, p. 31).
