{\bf Dissenting Views About Mathematics and Mathematicians}
\bigskip
\noindent
\item{$\bullet$}  ``A mathematician is a blind man in a 
dark room looking for a black cat which isn't there,''
{\it Charles Darwin}
\bigskip
\item{$\bullet$}  ``Mathematicians are like Frenchmen. 
Whatever you say to them, they translate into their own
language, and forthwith it is something completely different,''
{\it Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749 - 1832, German author
and philosopher)}
\bigskip
\item{$\bullet$}  ``As far as the laws of mathematics refer
to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are
certain, they do not refer to reality,''  {\it Albert Einstein}
\bigskip
\item{$\bullet$}  ``Mathematicians, who are only mathematicians,
have exact minds, provided all things are explained to them by 
means of definitions and axioms; otherwise they are quite inaccurate
and insufferable, for they are only right when the principles
are quite clear,''  {\it Blaise Pascal (1623 - 1664, French mathematician,
author, and Catholic philosopher)}
