Daily quote by Harvard University

• The rooms, libraries, and hallways of our university have been host to the exploits of legendary individuals — folks with names like Peirce, Osgood, Bôcher, Birkhoff, Morse, Whitney, Mac Lane, Ahlfors, Mackey, Gleason, Zariski, Brauer, Bott, and Tate. The influence of these scholars is still quite palpable, and their legacy is inspiring. In a half dozen or so separate fields—such as analysis, differential geometry and topology, algebraic geometry and algebraic topology, representation theory, group theory, and number theory — Harvard has led the way.
