I just happened across this today and it says what it says so well that I
wanted to share it.

Someone, at least, still knows what it's all about.

          ==========================================================
Time was when all the parts of the subject were dissevered, when algebra,
geometry, and arithmetic either lived apart or kept up cold relations of
acquaintance confined to occasional calls upon one another; but that is now
at an end; they are drawn together and are constantly becoming more and more
intimately related and connected by a thousand fresh ties, and we may
confidently look forward to a time when they shall form but one body with
one soul.
