It is strange that we know so little about the properties
of numbers. They are our handiwork, yet they baffle us; we
can fathom only a few of their intricacies. Having defined
their attributes and prescribed their behaviour, we are hard
pressed to perceive the implications of our formulas.
-- James R. Newman
