...a general method in which all truths of reason would be
reduced to a kind of calculation. At the same time, this
would be a sort of universal language or script, but infinitely
different from all those imagined previously, because its
symbols and words would direct the reason, and errors - except
those of fact - would be mere mistakes in calculation...
Wilhelm Leibniz (my academic great14-grandfather), 1685

Life is good for only two things, discovering mathematics and teaching
mathematics.
Simeon Denis Poisson
In computing, invariants are ephemeral.
