THE MYSTERIOUS EQUATIONS OF LOVE

JOHN F. NASH, Jr

" I HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED IN NUMBERS, IN EQUATIONS AND LOGICS AND NEED TO REASON. AND AFTER A
LIFE TIME OF SUCH PURSUIT, I ASK WHAT TRULY IS LARGER? WHO DECIDES REASON?
MY QUEST HAS TAKEN ME THROUGH THE PHYSICAL AND METAPHYSICAL, THE DELUSIONAL, AND BACK.AND I HAVE MADE THE MOST IMPORTANT DISCOVERY OF MY CAREER;THE MOST IMPORTANT DISCOVERY OF MY LIFE.
IT IS ONLY IN THE MYSTERIOUS EQUATIONS OF LOVE THAT THE LARGER VALUES CAN BE FOUND.AM ONLY HERE TONIGHT BECAUSE OF YOU;YOU ARE THE REASON I AM.

YOU ARE ALL MY REASONS."--JOHN NASH'S SPEECH @ STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN AS NOBEL PRIZE WINNER, 1994.
