I've always been passionate about geometry and the study of three-dimensional forms.

And, not only in Budapest. I worked very closely with a very powerful government organization, which shall remain unidentified, to develop the mass marketed version of the Cube.

Once I completed the Cube and demonstrated it to my students, I realized it was nearly impossible to put down.

Usually we are saying only part of the truth.

A good puzzle, it's a fair thing. Nobody is lying. It's very clear, and the problem depends just on you.

I wanted nothing else than to make the object as perfect as possible.

The problems of puzzles are very near the problems of life.

The Cube is an imitation of life itself - or even an improvement on life.

Our whole life is solving puzzles.

It was tremendously satisfying to watch this color parade.

This was such an extraordinary situation that I simply could not accept it.

I do not truly consider myself an icon, but the Cube has been quite successful.

I was somewhat out of place among my classmates; I could not be as bohemian as they were.

Now, after the Cube, I still don't have any plans to make anything like it.

We turn the Cube and it twists us.

I want to try to keep my life the same.

In my teaching, I enjoyed creating models to clearly communicate my thoughts.

I did not plan to make the Cube.

But thanks to my invention, my capitalist friends and I were able to bring the government to its knees.

The Cube can seem alive as it heats up in your hand. The fact that each face of the Cube is made of three layers of three blocks has an important meaning.

Yes, but with the Cube there are many flashes, there are many aha's.

I'm still the same person, thinking the same way, so it's possible I will invent something.

Like after a nice walk when you have seen many lovely sights you decide to go home, after a while I decided it was time to go home, let us put the cubes back in order. And it was at that moment that I came face to face with the Big Challenge: What is the way home?

I've always been passionate about geometry and the study of three-dimensional forms.

But for me, it was a code I myself had invented! Yet I could not read it.

Projective geometry is all geometry.

In things to be seen at once, much variety makes confusion, another vice of beauty. In things that are not seen at once, and have no respect one to another, great variety is commendable, provided this variety transgress not the rules of optics and geometry.

One geometry cannot be more true than another; it can only be more convenient. Geometry is not true, it is advantageous.

Now being in such grace and favor by reason I learned him some points of geometry and understanding of the art of mathematics with other things, I pleased him so that what I said he would not contrary.

The early study of Euclid made me a hater of geometry.

There is geometry in the humming of the strings, there is music in the spacing of the spheres.

Human knowledge is dark and uncertain; philosophy is dark, astrology is dark, and geometry is dark.

Poetry is as precise a thing as geometry.

There is still a difference between something and nothing, but it is purely geometrical and there is nothing behind the geometry.

Crystals grew inside rock like arithmetic flowers. They lengthened and spread, added plane to plane in an awed and perfect obedience to an absolute geometry that even stones - maybe only the stones - understood.

All one's inventions are true, you can be sure of that. Poetry is as exact a science as geometry.

It is hard to convince a high-school student that he will encounter a lot of problems more difficult than those of algebra and geometry.

Not that the propositions of geometry are only approximately true, but that they remain absolutely true in regard to that Euclidean space which has been so long regarded as being the physical space of our experience.

The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extra human architecture and furious rhythm. Geometry and anguish.

A geometry implies the heterogeneity of locus, namely that there is a locus of the Other. Regarding this locus of the Other, of one sex as Other, as absolute Other, what does the most recent development in topology allow us to posit?

Geometry was the first exciting course I remember.

In terms of individuals who actually inspired me, very few of the academic people that I had access to had that power over me. Maybe it's simply because I wasn't that committed to geometry.

I am coming more and more to the conviction that the necessity of our geometry cannot be demonstrated, at least neither by, nor for, the human intellect.

Everything one invents is true, you may be perfectly sure of that. Poetry is as precise as geometry.

The ballet makes us look at those bodies, it makes us listen to that music, it makes us wonder at the geometry, of the way they come together. The way that extraordinary space is controlled and given such emotional force.

And since geometry is the right foundation of all painting, I have decided to teach its rudiments and principles to all youngsters eager for art.

It has adopted the geometry most advantageous to the species or, in other words, the most convenient.

I find purer philosophy in a Poem than in a Conclusion of Geometry, a chemical analysis, or a physical law.

Music is the arithmetic of sounds as optics is the geometry of light.
