“I can see patterns in events, and behaviors; in mathematics, I follow slower”

“But I don't believe coincidences are chance events. I think they're the times we happen to see the mysterious pattern connecting everything.”

“No doubt I do act in 'bad faith' when I deliberately avoid facing an honest decision and follow the conventional pattern of behavior in order to be spared the anxiety that comes when one is... thrown into seventy thousand fathoms.”

“Talent is any recurring pattern of thought, feeling, or behavior that can be productively applied.”

“I might not be all that good with mathematics in class; but go into my mind; and you will see that type of mathematic I put in; in my everyday life, and you can say that I am genius in a way in the terms of mentality; but retarded in class.”

“Doing mathematics should always mean finding patterns and crafting beautiful and meaningful explanations.”
