![“In the future, as in the past, the great ideas [of mathematics] must be simplifying ideas, the creator must always be one who clarifies, for himself, and for others, the most complicated issues of formulas and concepts.” quote by Andre Weil](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/521/andre-weil-47736_complicated_in-the-future-as-in-the-past-the-great-i_1195472.jpg)
