Aesthetic Quote by Ian Stewart
“Two centuries ago Carl Friedrich Gauss, one of the greatest mathematicians and a founder of number theory, described his brainchild as "the queen of mathematics." Queens are regal, but they are also largely decorative, and this nuance was not lost on Gauss.”
![“Mathematics is the queen of the sciences and arithmetic [number theory] is the queen of mathematics. She often condescends to render service to astronomy and other natural sciences, but in all relations, she is entitled to first rank.” quote by Carl Friedrich Gauss](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/c83/carl-friedrich-gauss-9412_arithmetic_mathematics-is-the-queen-of-the-sciences_737124.jpg)
