Additional quotes by Henri Poincaré

The mathematician does not study pure mathematics because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it and he delights in it because it is beautiful.

Mathematicians are born, not made.

It is by logic that we prove, but by intuition that we discover. To know how to criticize is good, to know how to create is better.

We have not a direct intuition of the equality of two intervals of time. - Henri Poincaré
