The http://www.google.com logo is a tribute to Escher today.

Only those who attempt the absurd will achieve the impossible. I think it's in my basement... let me go upstairs and check. - M. C. Escher

He who wonders discovers that this in itself is wonder. - M. C. Escher

My work is a game, a very serious game. - M. C. Escher

What I give form to in daylight is only one per cent of what I have seen in darkness. - M. C. Escher, Quoted in Comic Sections, D. MacHale (Dublin 1993)

By keenly confronting the enigmas that surround us, and by considering and analysing the observations that I have made, I ended up in the domain of mathematics, Although I am absolutely without training in the exact sciences, I often seem to have more in common with mathematicians than with my fellow artists. - M. C. Escher, Quoted in To Infinity and Beyond, E Maor (Princeton 1991)

I don't use drugs, my dreams are frightening enough. - M. C. Escher (1898 - 1972)

We adore chaos because we love to produce order. - M. C. Escher (1898 - 1972)

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. - Steven Weinberg, 1999
