"In whatever corner of the world they may find themselves, mathematicians, like all scientists, are bonded together by a universal desire to understand life. Cooperation is natural, it is easy, it is necessary in the all-out effort of science to establish truth […] Science is international rather than national. The scientific exploration of the universe is the right of all men."
