Benoit Mandelbrot

The most complex object in mathematics, the Mandelbrot Set … is so complex as to be uncontrollable by mankind and describable as ‘chaos’.
BENOIT MANDELBROT

Chaos Mankind Mathematics
Round about the accredited and orderly facts of every science there ever floats a sort of dustcloud of exceptional observations, of occurrences minute and irregular and seldom met with, which it always proves more easy to ignore than to attend to.
BENOIT MANDELBROT

Facts Observation Order Science
I went to the computer and tried to experiment. I introduced a very high level of experiment in very pure mathematics.

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

Pictures were completely eliminated from mathematics; in particular when I was young this happened in a very strong fashion.

My fate has been that what I undertook was fully understood only after the fact.

A cloud is made of billows upon billows upon billows that look like clouds. As you come closer to a cloud you don’t get something smooth, but irregularities at a smaller scale.

For much of my life there was no place where the things I wanted to investigate were of interest to anyone.
