Mathematical Quotations S Back to MQS Home Page Back to "R" Quotations Forward to "T" Quotations Sanford, T. H. The modern, and to my mind true, theory is that mathematics is the abstract form of the natural sciences; and that it is valuable as a training of the reasoning powers not because it is abstract, but because it is a representation of actual things. In N. Rose Mathematical Maxims and Minims , Raleigh NC:Rome Press Inc., 1988. Santayana, George It is a pleasant surprise to him (the pure mathematician) and an added problem if he finds that the arts can use his calculations, or that the senses can verify them, much as if a composer found that sailors could heave better when singing his songs. In J. R. Newman (ed.) The World of Mathematics , New York: Simon and Schuster, 1956. Sarton, G. The main duty of the historian of mathematics, as well as his fondest privilege, is to explain the humanity of mathematics, to illustrate its greatness, beauty and dignity, and to describe how the incessant efforts and accumulated genius of many generations have built up that magnificent monument, the object of our most legitimate pride as men, and of our wonder, humility and thankfulness, as individuals. The study of the history of mathematics will not make better mathematicians but gentler ones, it will enrich their minds, mellow their hearts, and bring out their finer qualities. Sayers, Dorothy L.
