I think babies have kneecaps, too, but I can't find confirmation. However: "The reason that every major university maintains a department of mathematics is that it is cheaper to do this than to institutionalize all those people." A doctor, a lawyer and a mathematician were discussing the relative merits of having a wife or a mistress. The lawyer says: "For sure a mistress is better. If you have a wife and want a divorce, it causes all sorts of legal problems. The doctor says: "It's better to have a wife because the sense of security lowers your stress and is good for your health. The mathematician says: " You're both wrong. It's best to have both so that when the wife thinks you're with the mistress and the mistress thinks you're with your wife --- you can do some mathematics The reason that every major university maintains a department of mathematics is that it is cheaper to do this than to institutionalize all those people."
