" "

Es ist eine Mannigfaltigkeit und in derselben eine Transformationsgruppe gegeben; man soll die Mannigfaltigkeit angehören Gebilde hinsichtlich solcher Eigenschaften untersuchen; die durch die Transformationen der Gruppe nicht geändert werden. (Given a manifold with its associated transformation group, one should investigate those structures of the manifold that have properties which are invariant under the transformation group.)

Additional quotes by Felix Klein

The proof that π is a transcental number will forerver mark an epoch in mathematical science. It gives the final answer to the problem of squaring the circle and settles this vexed question once for all. This problem requires to derive the number π by a finite number of elementary geometrical processes, i.e. with the use of the ruler and compasses alone.

The theory of binary forms and the projective geometry of systems of points on a conic are one and the same, i.e., to every proposition concerning binary forms corresponds a proposition concerning such systems of points, and vice versa. ... Elementary plane geometry and the projective investigation of a quadric surface with reference to one of its pointa are one and the same.
