"Well, some mathematics problems look simple, and you try them for a year or so, and then you try them for a hundred years, and it turns out that they're extremely hard to solve."
Mathematics
"It's fine to work on any problem, so long as it generates interesting mathematics along the way - even if you don't solve it at the end of the day."
Work
"I hope that seeing the excitement of solving this problem will make young mathematicians realize that there are lots and lots of other problems in mathematics which are going to be just as challenging in the future."
Hope
"Fermat said he had a proof."
Proof
"But the best problem I ever found, I found in my local public library."
Public
"Then when I reached college I realized that many people had thought about the problem during the 18th and 19th centuries and so I studied those methods."
Thought
"I know it's a rare privilege, but if one can really tackle something in adult life that means that much to you, then it's more rewarding than anything I can imagine."
Life
"I realized that anything to do with Fermat's Last Theorem generates too much interest."
Interest
"The definition of a good mathematical problem is the mathematics it generates rather than the problem itself."
Mathematics
"That particular odyssey is now over. My mind is now at rest."
