If nature leads us to mathematical forms of great simplicity and beautyby forms, I am referring to coherent systems of hypotheses, axioms, etc.to forms that no one has previously encountered, we cannot help thinking that they are "true," that they reveal a genuine feature of natureâ¦. You must have felt this too: the almost frightening simplicity and wholeness of the relationships which nature suddenly spreads out before us and for which none of us was in the least prepared. -
