My problem is that I have been persecuted by an integer.
Increasing pressure on students to subject themselves to ever more tests, whittling themselves down to rows and rows of tight black integers upon a transcript, all ready to goose-step straight into a computer.
God made the integers, man made the rest.
[L]ife ceases to be a fraction and becomes an integer.
The trouble with integers is that we have examined only the very small ones. Maybe all the exciting stuff happens at really big numbers, ones we can't even begin to think about in any very definite way. Our brains have evolved to get us out of the rain, find where the berries are, and keep us from getting killed. Our brains did not evolve to help us grasp really large numbers or to look at things in a hundred thousand dimensions.
The Good Lord made all the integers; the rest is man's doing.
Integers are the fountainhead of all mathematics.
