• The real work of us mathematicians, from now until, roughly, fifty years from now, when computers won't need us anymore, is to make the transition from human-centric math to machine-centric math as smooth and efficient as possible.

• When a problem seems intractable, it is often a good idea to try to study "toy" versions of it in the hope that as the toys become increasingly larger and more sophisticated, they would metamorphose, in the limit, to the real thing.

• Puedes seguir contando eternamente. La respuesta es infinito. Pero, francamente, creo que nunca me gustó. Siempre encontré algo repulsivo en ello. Prefiero las matemáticas finitas mucho más que las infinitas. Creo que es mucho más natural, mucho más atractiva y la teoría es mucho más bella. Es muy concreta. Es algo que se puede tocar, algo que se puede sentir y algo con lo que relacionarse. Para mí, las matemáticas infinitas no tienen sentido, porque son un sinsentido abstracto.

• Let me also remind you that zero, like all of mathematics, is fictional and an idealization. It is impossible to reach absolute zero temperature or to get perfect vacuum. Luckily, mathematics is a fairyland where ideal and fictional objects are possible.

• Conventional wisdom, fooled by our misleading "physical intuition", is that the real world is "continuous", and that discrete models are necessary evils for approximating the "real" world, due to the innate discreteness of the digital computer.
