“Mathematics is the science that yields the best
opportunity to observe the working of the mind. Its study is the best training
of our abilities as it develops both the power and the precision of our
thinking. Mathematics is valuable on account of the number and variety of its
applications. And it is equally valuable in another respect: By cultivating it,
we acquire the habit of a method of reasoning which can be applied afterwards
to the study of any subject and can guide us in life's great and little
problems.” from Eloge de M. Euler par le Marquis
de Condorcet
