-Cut-the-knot's manifesto states that "Judging Mathematics by its pragmatic value is like judging symphonia by the weight of its score," and describes the site as "a resource that would help learn, if not math itself, then, at least, ways to appreciate its beauty."<ref>{{cite web|accessdate=2006-01-18|url=http://www.cut-the-knot.org/manifesto/index.shtml|title=Cut-the-Knot's manifesto}}</ref>
