“Algebra is the offer made by the devil to the mathematician. The devil says: I will give you this powerful machine, it will answer any question you like. All you need to do is give me your soul: give up geometry and you will have this marvelous machine.”
Michael Francis Atiyah

“disappeared,”
Anonymous, The Cloud of Unknowing

Guy Debord
“As long as necessity is socially dreamed, dreaming will remain a social necessity. The spectacle is the bad dream of a modern society in chains and ultimately expresses nothing more than its wish for sleep. The spectacle is the guardian of that sleep.”
Guy Debord, The Society of the Spectacle

Rosa Luxemburg
“Don't forget, as busy as you may be, to quickly raise your head and cast a glance at those great silver clouds and that silent blue ocean in which they are swimming...take notice of the resplendence and glory that overlie this day...because this day will never, ever come again! This day is a gift to you like a rose in full bloom, lying at your feet, waiting for you to pick it up and press it to your lips.”
Rosa Luxemburg

W.E.B. Du Bois
“Believe in life! Always human beings will progress to greater, broader, and fuller life.”
W.E.B. Du Bois
