"It may well be doubted whether, in all the range of Science, there is any field so fascinating to the explorer – so rich in hidden treasures – so fruitful in delightful surprises – as that of Pure Mathematics. The charm lies chiefly, I think, in the absolute certainty of its results: for that is what, beyond almost all mental treasures, the human intellect craves for." – Lewis Carroll (1832-1898)
