My favorite Von Neumann anecdote/quote is this one: John Von Neumann once said to Felix Smith:
"Young man, in mathematics you don't understand things. You just get used to them."
This was a response to Smith's fear about the method of characteristics. It took me a while to fully grasp what he meant, but after diving into Mathematics and Physics for a while, I now hold it as one of the capital T truths of learning. |
