I went to Princeton in the fall of 1930 as a half-time instructor.

As I say, there was this movement to try to bring philosophers and mathematicians together into an organization where they would talk to each other. An organization wasn't effective unless you had a journal. That's about all I know.

And what I learned in Church's course. He trained us intensively in his new system, which he was just developing. Two papers were presented. I think the second paper wasn't published until well after the course was finished.

I read one or two other books which gave me a background in mathematics other than logic.

I think that after Church got his Ph.D. he studied in Europe, maybe in the Netherlands, for a year or two.

In the fall term of 1933-34 I was on my family farm in Maine.

I had a liberal arts education at Amherst College where I had two majors, mathematics and philosophy.

I went to Princeton in the fall of 1930 as a half-time instructor.

Well, I think Barkley and I were the only two who were working with Church for a Ph.D.

For example, the philosophers who were interested in logic were probably rather logical for mathematicians. But the ASL got us together, so we could talk to each other and publish in the same journal.

I don't think Post often came to Princeton during the '30s. I can't remember ever seeing him in Princeton.

I'm sure Church got some of his ideas from this trip to Europe.

Here at Wisconsin we didn't get an undergraduate course in mathematical logic until the '60s.

The job in Wisconsin was the first genuine offer of an academic job in a university which I received.

I think Veblen had an interest in logic.

I went to Princeton from Amherst, where I split my interests between mathematics and philosophy.

Those three years ended with June 1933. At that time I left Princeton, having submitted my Ph.D. thesis.

When I got to Princeton I made a point of attending the Philosophy Club and listening to the lectures, but I didn't get involved in any discussions in those clubs. I guess after the first year, I dropped that.

I had some hesitations about philosophy because, if you worked out a philosophical theory, it was hard to know whether you were going to be able to prove it or whether other theories had just as good a claim on belief.

It wasn't until my second year that I got to actually work with Church.

Just because there are people who violate rules, behave illegally and so on, it does not mean that everybody is like that. On the contrary, if you watch certain judges, you observe that they honestly try to implement what they believe the Constitution says and just put it into effect.

In middle school, I played quarterback. I was at a tiny school, so you played offense and defense - I played linebacker, and in high school I stopped playing around my sophomore year because of my acting stuff.

On almost anything someone does in the computer business, you can go back in the literature and prove someone had done it earlier.

My politics are wildly different from hers, but someone who has been good for women in politics, stamped her authority on European and world affairs, is Angela Merkel.

Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.

A step towards what you fear is a mile towards mastering it.

Even before coming into the industry, I was a big fan of Motown, the Jackson 5, Gladys Knight, the Temptations, Diana Ross and The Supremes.

Judaism and Christianity in themselves are distinctly separate entities, to be sure; but when considering their influence on Western thought, we must bear in mind that Christianity alone, or almost alone, transmitted the Jewish share, simply by what it contained of it in its own, original constitution.

People have a preconceived notion about who I am and it's interesting. It's like picking who you want to win for the Oscars and not seeing the movie. Before you make a statement about someone, get all the information and see everything before you make a judgment.

I'm a passionate, hardcore fisherman. Biggest fish I caught? A 200-pound tarpon.

Whenever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision.

There's something so satisfying about road trip movies - and books!

2014 was a year of intense social upheaval. In truth, the same could be said for most every year. There is no standstill in a world filled with so many people, scrambling for so much.

After working for 14 years on Wall Street and growing up in a family with strong roots in small business, I know how important the entrepreneurial spirit is to attaining the American dream.

Even if the pace is slow in championships, you can still sprint well and still power in the last 200, which is always the main part when the race is slow.

In the 20th century, the United States endured two world wars and other traumatic and expensive military conflicts; the Depression; a dozen or so recessions and financial panics; oil shocks; a flu epidemic; and the resignation of a disgraced president. Yet the Dow rose from 66 to 11,497.

If Im exhausted physically and particularly emotionally I cant tell whats good and I cant tell whats bad and Im useless.

A lot of what is most beautiful about the world arises from struggle.

In the early 1930s, flying from England to Australia was the longest flight in the world. It was considered extremely dangerous and hazardous, pushing pilots to the limits of mechanical skills and human endurance. Aviation was young.

I suspect that many corporations have begun to understand that they have an important role to play in the lives of their communities, and that allocating funds to support local groups helps them discharge that function and also burnish their image.

Film has always been where my heart is.

I'm just a country boy from north Georgia, and I have three children and a wonderful wife. And when I look at my three children, who are 8, 11, and 12, and they really represent the faces and the future of the children all across my congressional district, and what the Tea Party stands for is not extremism; it's about their future.

Many people, many girls have tried to teach me the rules to football. And you would think that it would get in my head that way, but I just don't understand it.

Our dad hugged us and kissed us so much that some friends and relatives complained that he was going to turn us into sissies or homosexuals. But my dad didn't care. Let them raise their kids in a reserved and reticent way. He grew up in Israel, and his boys were going to be hugged and kissed by their father and know they were loved.
