There exists, if I am not mistaken, an entire world which is the totality of mathematical truths, to which we have access only with our mind, just as a world of physical reality exists, the one like the other independent of ourselves, both of divine creation.

  • -- Charles Hermite 埃尔米特

如果我没有弄错的话,存在着一个完整的世界,它是数学真理的总和,我们只有用我们的心灵才能进入它,就像存在着一个物理现实的世界,一个和另一个一样独立于我们自己,都是神的创造。
