“Mathematics is not something that you find lying around in your back yard. It's produced by the human mind.

“On the whole, lying is a cheerful affair. Embellishments are intended to give pleasure. People long to tell you what they imagine you want to hear. They want to amuse you; they want to amuse themselves; they want to show you a good time. This is beyond hospitality. This is art.” PeopleWantGivingLongArtWholeShowsLyingPleasureImagineAffairGood TimesCheerfulHospitalityEmbellishment Author:Isabel Fonseca
