Change Quote by Hermann Weyl

“Two possibilities present themselves for the analytical treatment of metrical geometry.”

— Hermann Weyl

“Although in the external reality of general relativity, you’re an extended braidlike pattern in a static four-dimensional spacetime,”

— Max Tegmark

“The question: 'is the Euclidean geometry true?' has no significance for Poincaré, for these is no such thing as one geometry being more true…

— Fulton J. Sheen

I then began to study arithmetical questions without any great apparent result, and without suspecting that they could have the least connexion with my…

— Henri Poincare

“said that in non-Euclidean geometry space has a curvature, but this way of stating the matter is misleading, since it seems to imply a…

— Hendrik Antoon Lorentz

...to characterize the import of pure geometry, we might use the standard form of a movie-disclaimer: No portrayal of the characteristics of geometrical figures…

— Carl Gustav Hempel

My forms are geometric, but they don't interact in a geometric sense. They're just forms that exist everywhere, even if you don't see them.

— Ellsworth Kelly

“Although in the external reality of general relativity, you’re an extended braidlike pattern in a static four-dimensional spacetime, you nonetheless perceive yourself as localized…

Aspiring to these wide generalizations, the analysis of quadratic functions soars to a pitch from whence it may look proudly down on the feeble…
