George Pólya

Citas

• “Analogy pervades all our thinking, our everyday speech and our trivial conclusions as well as artistic ways of expression and the highest scientific achievements.”

• “The best of ideas is hurt by uncritical acceptance and thrives on critical examination.”

• “We need heuristic reasoning when we construct a strict proof as we need scaffolding when we erect a building.”

• “If you cannot solve the proposed problem, try to solve first a simpler related problem.”

• “People tell you that wishful thinking is bad. Do not believe it, this is just one of those generally accepted errors.”
