i feel like if at some point in your life you feel the need to say “a sheaf of e infinity rings on a moduli stack”, maybe something went wrong along the way
If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize how complicated life is.

"We humans long to be connected with our origins, so we create rituals. Science is another way to express this longing. It also connects us with our origins, and it too has its rituals and its commandments. Its only sacred truth is that there are no sacred truths. All assumptions must be critically examined. Arguments from authority are worthless. Whatever is inconsistent with the facts, no matter how fond of it we are, must be discarded or revised. Science is not perfect, it’s often misused, it’s only a tool, but it’s the best tool we have. Self-correcting, ever-changing, applicable to everything. With this tool we vanquish the impossible. With the methods of science we have begun to explore the cosmos." - Carl Sagan

A mathematics course is much more than a thrice-weekly regurgitation of algorithmic tools. It is a distilled presentation of centuries of concentrated effort by fellow humans, men and women motivated both by real-world problems and a sense of beauty and consistency
