"Equations are just the boring part of mathematics. I attempt to see things in terms of geometry." —Stephen Hawking
"Pre-Calculus is really a class about moving from the particular [Algebra II and before] to the general [Calculus and beyond]. We take particular skills and ideas students are comfortable with—like solving a quadratic equation—and generalize them to as many mathematical objects as we can—[like] solving all polynomial equations." —Dan Meyer
"As you will find in multivariable calculus, there is often a number of solutions for any given problem." —John Nash
