“No mathematician should ever allow him to forget that mathematics, more than any other art or science, is a young man's game. 鈥� Galois died at twenty-one, Abel at twenty-seven, Ramanujan at thirty-three, Riemann at forty.

“La libertad absoluta no existe", se record贸 con amargura."Cuando cre铆 que hab铆a conquistado la m铆a vuelvo a caer prisionero de las circunstancias" Con el tiempo hab铆a logrado tener m谩s libertad que Esteban, m谩s atado a la herencia familiar y a los mandatos sociales. Sin embargo, aunque el ten铆a el privilegio de elegir sus relaciones amorosas, se dio cuenta de que sus deseos eran ahora esclavizados por una mujer que no pod铆a tener. "隆Carajo!", penso...”

“In his wretched life of less than twenty-seven years Abel accomplished so much of the highest order that one of the leading mathematicians of the Nineteenth Century (Hermite, 1822-1901) could say without exaggeration, 'Abel has left mathematicians enough to keep them busy for five hundred years.'
