Thanks, Kirsti,

I think Peirce's statement in this essay is key to resolving
many perplexities about the nature of mathematical inquiry.
It speaks very strongly to my own experience of what it
means to do mathematics, the sense of beauty and the
joy of discovery that accompanies its best moments.

Regards,

Jon
