Ludwig Boltzmann cytaty

„Nie ma nic bardziej praktycznego niż dobra teoria.”

„Tak jak muzyk rozpoznać może Mozarta, Beethovena czy Schuberta po wysłuchaniu kilku pierwszych taktów tak matematyk po przeczytaniu kilku stron pracy odróżni Cauchy'ego, Gaussa, Jacobiego, Helmholtza. Francuskich twórców wyróżnia wybitna formalna elegancja, podczas gdy Anglików, a szczególnie Maxwella, charakteryzuje znakomity zmysł dramatyczny.”

Ludwig Boltzmann

Wie der Musiker bei den ersten Takten Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert erkennt, so würde der Mathematiker nach wenigen Seiten, seinen Cauchy, Gauß, Jacobi, Helmholtz unterscheiden. Höchste äußere Eleganz, mitunter etwas schwaches Knochengerüste der Schlüsse charakterisiert die Franzosen, die größte dramatische Wucht die Engländer, vor allem Maxwell.

“Philosophy gets on my nerves. If we analyze the ultimate ground of everything, then everything finally falls into nothingness. But I have decided to resume my lectures again and look the Hydra of doubt straight into the eye, and it be quite ominous if one values one's life.”

“I am conscious of being only an individual struggling weakly against the stream of time. But it still remains in my power to contribute in such a way that, when the theory of gases is again revived, not too much will have to be rediscovered.”
