A book must be an ice axe to break the sea frozen inside us." »Franz Kafka

"There was a blithe certainty that came from first comprehending the full Einstein field equations, arabesques of Greek letters clinging tenuously to the page, a gossamer web. They seemed insubstantial when you first saw them, a string of squiggles.

The iron fist of the real, inside the velvet glove of airy mathematics." »Gregory Benford - Timescape
