Schwartz: I asked some students to figure out why [a method of deriving the equation of a plane] works and tell me. Which they did. It was great. Schwartz: They explained it in 3-4 different ways, including one of them who described it with Hilbert's Nullstellensatz. Which is ridiculous. Schwartz: I'm not going to explain it that way, because I don't understand it myself without looking up the details of the Nullstellensatz.

//Schwartz discusses an analogy of walking in the forest of math as a representation of mathematical experience and skill, such that Analysis 1B students are now crawling Student 1: If we're crawling in the forest of math and you're hobbling, who's flying?
