The arithmetic of algebraic varieties is a testament to the power of abstract thought.
We don’t start with models. We start with data. We don’t have any preconceived notions. We look for things that can be replicated thousands of times. A trouble with convergence trading is that you don’t have a time scale. You say that eventually things will come together.Well, when is eventually?
If you’re not failing occasionally, you’re not pushing hard enough.
The deepest insights in mathematics often come from the most abstract theories.
Failure is not the opposite of success; it's a stepping stone to success.
