"The mathematician does not study pure mathematics because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, and he delights in it because it is beautiful." --- Henri PoincarĂ©     "A goal without a plan is just a wish."   --- Antoine de Saint-Exupery     "The things that we love tell us what we are."  --- St. Thomas Aquinas      " Experts often possess more data than judgment."   --- from the Internet     “Wisdom  begins with knowledge about knowledge.”   --- Anon.   “The newest (and oldest) form of political thug promises bounty to the public while stealing from the cash register.” – Anon.       "If you believe in sanctuary cities, you have a religion where you get to feel good about yourself, you don’t actually have to do anything, and others pay for your faith. " - Anon.      (Convenient!   The take-away here is that we mustn’t call the intellectual left stupid anymore.   They did dream this one up!)
