Mathematics is not a deductive science—that's a cliché. When you try to prove a theorem, you don't just list the hypotheses and then start to reason. What you do is trial and error, experimentation, guesswork.
数学不是一门演绎科学——那是陈词滥调。当你试图证明一个定理时，你不仅仅是列出假设然后开始推理。你所做的是反复试验、实验和猜测。
I don’t create for the future. I create for now.
There's a phrase in Buddhism， 'Beginner's mind'.It's wonderful to have a beginner's mind.
