Originál: One of the most amazing things about mathematics is the people who do math aren't usually interested in application, because mathematics itself is truly a beautiful art form. It's structures and patterns, and that's what we love, and that's what we get off on. And so we write papers because we discovered a new pattern of sorts. Then it's up to somebody else to figure out if it has a use or not. And maybe it will be like a hundred years from now, and who cares.
