I've added it to my quote file. Re: Pythagoras... Pythagoras of Samos is often described as the first pure mathematician. He is an extremely important figure in the development of mathematics. Born: about 569 BC in Samos, Ionia. Died: about 475 BC The only reason I'd ever even heard of him is because when and I were building a run-in horse shed, my son helped us 'square it up' by using 'Pythagoras's theorem'... a formula that I won't even attempt to explain. LOL. Based on the quote that you shared, I guess he was a pretty 'deep thinker'. hugs, Janet Quote
