Quote of the Day

We admit, in geometry, not only infinite magnitudes, that is to say magnitudes greater than any assignable magnitude, but infinite magnitudes infinitely greater, the one than the other. This astonishes our dimension of brains, which is only about six inches long, five broad, and six in depth, in the largest of heads.

Voltaire
