The allure of math

When I was young(er[?]) and untamed by the ways of the (real) world, I used to read stuff like this as a hobby... Right-o, what fun!

Actually, I still love algebra, calculus, trigonometry and geometry, number theory, set theory, chaos theory... (But do dislike arithmetic!)
Alas, I have forgotten much!

Nonetheless, formulae, equations, conjectures, proofs and theorems still encapsulate in my mind the beauty of pure abstraction and the quest for the infinite in the finite realm of being and time...
