"… it is not just its beauty that has made Mathematics so attractive.
Thirty or so years ago, a philosopher friend of mine remarked
rather dolefully, 'I am afraid that Latin, the knowledge of which
used to be the mark of a civilised person, will be replaced by
Mathematics as the universally accepted mark of learning.'
This was probably the most prescient statement he ever made,
as the importance of Mathematics is now recognised in fields
as diverse as medicine, linguistics, and even literature."
