A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems.
Paul Erdos
A mathematician is a person who can find analogies between theorems; a better mathematician is one who can see analogies between proofs and the best mathematician can notice analogies between theories.
Stefan Banach
Economists often like startling theorems, results which seem to run counter to conventional wisdom.
Joseph Stiglitz
I have found a very great number of exceedingly beautiful theorems.
Pierre de Fermat
The pursuit of pretty formulas and neat theorems can no doubt quickly degenerate into a silly vice, but so can the quest for austere generalities which are so very general indeed that they are incapable of application to any particular.
E. T. Bell
There are three signs of senility. The first sign is that a man forgets his theorems. The second sign is that he forgets to zip up. The third sign is that he forgets to zip down.
Paul Erdos
Young men should prove theorems, old men should write books.
G. H. Hardy
