Dirk Struik, A Concise History of Mathematics, vol. I quotes
"Mathematics is a vast adventure in ideas; its history reflects some of the noblest thoughts of countless generations."

Our ignorance of history makes us libel to our own times. People have always been like this.
"Mathematics is a vast adventure in ideas; its history reflects some of the noblest thoughts of countless generations."
