Mathematics is entirely free in its development, and its concepts are only linked by the necessity of being consistent, and are co-ordinated with concepts introduced previously by means of precise definitions.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor Don’t always blindly follow guidance and step-by-step instructions; you might run into something interesting.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor Every transfinite consistent multiplicity, that is, every transfinite set, must have a definite aleph as its cardinal number.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor Use Campaign link tagging labels all for specifying slight differences in content for split testing.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor My beautiful proof lies all in ruins.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor There is no doubt that we cannot do without variable quantities in the sense of the potential infinite. But from this very fact the necessity of the actual infinite can be demonstrated.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor This view of the infinite, which I consider to be the sole correct one, is held by only a few. While possibly I am the very first in history to take this position so explicitly, with all of its logical consequences, I know for sure that I shall not be the last!
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor A set is a Many that allows itself to be thought of as a One.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor Had Mittag-Leffler had his way, I should have to wait until the year 1984, which to me seemed too great a demand!
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor Mathematics, in the development of its ideas, has only to take account of the immanent reality of its concepts and has absolutely no obligation to examine their transient reality.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor The potential infinite means nothing other than an undetermined, variable quantity, always remaining finite, which has to assume values that either become smaller than any finite limit no matter how small, or greater than any finite limit no matter how great.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor The essence of mathematics lies precisely in its freedom.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor A false conclusion once arrived at and widely accepted is not easily dislodged and the less it is understood the more tenaciously it is held.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor The fear of infinity is a form of myopia that destroys the possibility of seeing the actual infinite, even though it in its highest form has created and sustains us, and in its secondary transfinite forms occurs all around us and even inhabits our minds.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor In mathematics the art of proposing a question must be held of higher value than solving it.
Georg CantorGeorg Cantor To ask the right question is harder than to answer it.
