Woody Allen:
Standard mathematics has recently been rendered obsolete by the discovery tha
for years we have been writing the numeral five backward.
This has led to reevaluation of counting as a method of getting
from one to ten.  Students are taught advanced concepts of Boolean Algebra,
and formerly unsolvable equations are dealt with by threats of reprisals.

    Mathematics has beauties of its own -- a symmetry and proportion in its
 results, a lack of superfluity, an exact adaptation of means to ends, which is
exceedingly remarkable and to be found only in the works of the greatest beauty
 When this subject is properly ... presented, the mental emotion should be that
of enjoyment of beauty, not that of repulsion from the ugly and the unpleasant.

Deep Thoughts, by Jack Handy:
In math, instead of "answers" why don't they just call them "impressions",
and if two people get different "impressions", then so what can't we
just all be brothers?
