A computation is a process that obeys finitely describable rules.

Computations are everywhere, once you begin to look at things in a certain way.

The study of infinity is much more than a dry academic game. The intellectual pursuit of the absolute infinity is, as Georg Cantor realized, a form of the soul's quest for God. Whether or not the goal is ever reached, an awareness of the process brings enlightenment.

I think dry nanotechnology is probably a dead-end.

It's soothing to realize that my mind's processes are inherently uncontrollable.

Intellectually, perspective [drawing] is a breakthrough, because here, for the first time, the physical space we live in is being depicted as ifit were an abstract, mathematical space. A less obvious innovation due to perspective is that here, for the first time, people are actually drawing pictures of infinities.
