"To look is to learn if you listen carefully." - Per Arnoldi
"Of all the will toward the ideal in mankind only a small part can manifest itself in public action. All the rest of this force must be content with small and obscure deeds. " - Albert Schweitzer
"No matter how happy you have ever been, even at your happiest, it won't come close to how happy you will one day be. The plot thickens." - The Universe

The Tchokwe people of northeast Angola are well known for their beautiful decorative art. When they meet, they illustrate their conversations by drawings on the ground. Most of these drawings belong to a long tradition. They refer to proverbs, fables, games, riddles, etc. and play an important role in the transmission of knowledge from one generation to the other. - P.P.J. Gerdes : On ethnomathematical research and symmetry, Symmetry: Culture and Science 1, 2 (1990), 154-170.

"Abstraction today is no longer that of the map, the double, the mirror or the concept. Simulation is no longer that of a territory, a referential being or substance. It is the generation of models of a real without origin or reality: a hyperreal. The territory no longer precedes the map, nor survives it. Henceforth, it is the map that precedes the territory ..." - Jean Baudrillard, "The Precession of Simulacra" Via
"It is not for me to change you. The question is, how can I be of service to you without diminishing your degrees of freedom?" - Buckminster Fuller
