"Mathematicians will never have enough time to read all the
discoveries in Geometry (a quantity which is increasing from day to
day and seems likely in this scientific age to develop to enormous
proportions) if they continue to be presented in a rigorous form
according to the manner of the ancients."
--Christiaan Huygens, AD 1659
(em John Stillwell, Mathematics and Its History, p 146)
