America, I will tell you how to do it.
America, we must begin
with a geometric problem
converted to an algebraic equation,
and then, having simplified it
as far as possible, solve it
geometrically, in a manner like that
which Descartes used for quadratics.
America, we are talking issues of geometric algebra,
quadratic equations
not in the algebraic sense of the Babylonians,
but geometrically,
somewhat in the manner of the ancient Greeks.
America, there are mathematical ways
to solve any problem.
