“Music rhythms are mathematical patterns. When you hear a song and your body starts moving with it, your body is doing math. The kids in their parents' garage practicing to be a band may not realize it, but they're also practicing math.”
“Common sense is the measure of the possible; it is composed of experience and prevision; it is calculation applied to life.”
