35. Chaos

GA 30/35_chaos/p003 · English MediumMedium alignmentSome paragraph re-numbering between this translation and the German original — the locus may slip by a paragraph or two.

I don't want to talk about what it is that actually distinguishes mathematical judgments from those about real things. Nor do I want to talk about whether there is anything else in our lives that carries the same or similar certainty as mathematics. But I wanted to talk about the subjective habits of thought that distinguish the mathematician from those who work in another branch of knowledge.
