An extraordinary amount of arrogance is present in any claim of having been the first in inventing something.

The extraordinary fact is that the first idea I had which motivated me, that worked, is conjecture, a mathematical idea which may or may not be true. And that idea is still unproven. It is the foundation, what started me and what everybody failed to **** prove has so far defeated the greatest efforts by experts to be proven.

Bottomless wonders spring from simple rules, which are repeated without end.
