" "Till now the mathematicians tried in vain to discover some order in the sequence of the prime numbers and we have every reason to believe that there is some mystery which the human mind shall never penetrate. To convince oneself, one has only to glance at the tables of primes which some people took the trouble to compute beyond a hundred thousand, and one perceives that there is no order and no rule. This is so much more surprising as the arithmetic gives us definite rules with the help of which we can continue the sequence of the primes as far as we please, without noticing, however, the least trace of order.
Leonhard Euler (15 April 1707 – 18 September 1783) was a Swiss mathematician, physicist, astronomer, geographer, logician, and engineer who founded the studies of graph theory and topology and made pioneering and influential discoveries in many other branches of mathematics such as analytic number theory, complex analysis, and infinitesimal calculus. He introduced much of modern mathematical terminology and notation, including the notion of a mathematical function. He is also known for his work in mechanics, fluid dynamics, optics, astronomy, and music theory. He is considered to be one of the greatest mathematicians of all time.

Quand mon cerveau excite dans mon ame la sensation d'un arbre ou d'une maison, je prononce hardiment, qu'il existe réellement hors de moi un arbre ou une maison, dont je connois même le lieu, la grandeur ou d'autres propriétés. Ainsi ne trouve-t-on ni homme ni bête qui doutent de cette vérité. Si un paysan en vouloit douter ; s'il disoit, par exemple, qu'il ne croyait pas que son baillif existe, quoiqu'il fut devant lui, on le pretendroit pour un fou et cela avec raison : mais dès qu'un philosophe avance de tels sentimens, il veut qu'on admire son esprit et ses lumières, qui surpassent infiniment celles du peuple.
