Maths

“Arithmetic is being able to count up to twenty without taking off your shoes.” ~ Mickey Mouse 

 

“Millions saw the apple fall, but Newton asked why.” ~ Bernard Baruch 

 

“The essence of mathematics is not to make simple things complicated, but to make complicated things simple.” ~ Stan Gudder 

 

“To explain all nature is too difficult a task for any one man or even for any one age. `Tis much better to do a little with certainty, and leave the rest for others that come after you, than to explain all things.” ~ Isaac Newton
