I can observe the game theory is applied very much in economics. Generally, it would be wise to get into the mathematics as much as seems reasonable because the economists who use more mathematics are somehow more respected than those… — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image
I don't think exactly like a professional economist. I think about economics and economic ideas, but somewhat like an outsider. — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image

I was on the mathematics faculty at M.I.T. from 1951 through until I resigned in the spring of 1959. — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image

I went to M.I.T. in the summer of 1951 as a 'C.L.E. Moore Instructor.' I had been an instructor at Princeton for one year… — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image
Of course, the American education system is very inefficient in many ways compared to other countries in Europe or Japan, but it works in… — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image
It is easy to say that there are the rich and the poor, and so something should be done. But in history, there are always the rich and the poor. If the poor were not as poor, we would still call them the poor. I mean, whoever has less can be called the poor. You will always have the 10%… — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share
As a graduate student I studied mathematics fairly broadly, and I was fortunate enough, besides developing the idea which led to 'Non-Cooperative Games,' also to make a nice discovery relating to manifolds and real algebraic varieties. — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share
I think mental illness or madness can be an escape also. People don't develop a mental illness because they are in the happiest of… — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image
If things are not so good, you may be one to imagine something better. For me, I was able to imagine myself as in… — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image
I would finally renounce my delusional hypotheses and revert to thinking of myself as a human of more conventional circumstances and return to mathematical… — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image
I can see there's a connection between not following normal thinking and doing creative thinking. I wouldn't have had good scientific ideas if I… — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image
The ideas I had about supernatural beings came to me the same way that my mathematical ideas did. So I took them seriously. — John Forbes Nash, Jr Copy Share Image
