Mathematical Beauty Quotes

Theoretical physicists accept the need for mathematical beauty as an act of faith... For example, the main reason why the theory of relativity is so universally accepted is its mathematical beauty Picture Quote #1
The chief forms of beauty are order and symmetry and definiteness, which the mathematical sciences demonstrate in a special degree Picture Quote #1
What makes the theory of relativity so acceptable to physicists in spite of its going against the principle of simplicity is its great mathematical beauty. This is a quality which cannot be defined, any more than beauty in art can be defined, but which people who study mathematics usually have no difficulty in appreciating Picture Quote #1
It is quite clear that beauty does depend on one’s culture and upbringing for certain kinds of beauty, pictures, literature, poetry and so on... But mathematical beauty is of a rather different kind. I should say perhaps it is of a completely different kind and transcends these personal factors. It is the same in all countries and at all periods of time Picture Quote #1
A theory with mathematical beauty is more likely to be correct than an ugly one that fits some experimental data Picture Quote #1
... the feeling of mathematical beauty, of the harmony of numbers and of forms, of geometric elegance. It is a genuinely aesthetic feeling, which all mathematicians know Picture Quote #1
