A geometry implies the heterogeneity of locus, namely that there is a locus of the Other. Regarding this locus of the Other, of one sex as Other, as absolute Other, what does the most recent development in topology allow us to posit?
Jacques Lacan

All one's inventions are true, you can be sure of that. Poetry is as exact a science as geometry.
Gustave Flaubert

And since geometry is the right foundation of all painting, I have decided to teach its rudiments and principles to all youngsters eager for art.
Albrecht Durer

Arithmetic! Algebra! Geometry! Grandiose trinity! Luminous triangle! Whoever has not known you is without sense!
Comte de Lautreamont

Crystals grew inside rock like arithmetic flowers. They lengthened and spread, added plane to plane in an awed and perfect obedience to an absolute geometry that even stones - maybe only the stones - understood.
Annie Dillard

Everything one invents is true, you may be perfectly sure of that. Poetry is as precise as geometry.
Gustave Flaubert

Geometry is not true, it is advantageous.
Henri Poincare

Geometry was the first exciting course I remember.
Steven Chu

Human knowledge is dark and uncertain; philosophy is dark, astrology is dark, and geometry is dark.
John Jewel

I am coming more and more to the conviction that the necessity of our geometry cannot be demonstrated, at least neither by, nor for, the human intellect.
Carl Friedrich Gauss

I find purer philosophy in a Poem than in a Conclusion of Geometry, a chemical analysis, or a physical law.
Wilfred Owen

I've always been passionate about geometry and the study of three-dimensional forms.
Erno Rubik

In terms of individuals who actually inspired me, very few of the academic people that I had access to had that power over me. Maybe it's simply because I wasn't that committed to geometry.
Twyla Tharp

In things to be seen at once, much variety makes confusion, another vice of beauty. In things that are not seen at once, and have no respect one to another, great variety is commendable, provided this variety transgress not the rules of optics and geometry.
Christopher Wren

It has adopted the geometry most advantageous to the species or, in other words, the most convenient.
Henri Poincare

It is hard to convince a high-school student that he will encounter a lot of problems more difficult than those of algebra and geometry.
Edward W. Howe

Music is the arithmetic of sounds as optics is the geometry of light.
Claude Debussy

Not that the propositions of geometry are only approximately true, but that they remain absolutely true in regard to that Euclidean space which has been so long regarded as being the physical space of our experience.
Arthur Cayley

Now being in such grace and favor by reason I learned him some points of geometry and understanding of the art of mathematics with other things, I pleased him so that what I said he would not contrary.
Will Adams

One geometry cannot be more true than another; it can only be more convenient. Geometry is not true, it is advantageous.
