Borges on Numbers
First, I want to offer the words of another individual who thought about numbers:
“He told me that in 1886, he had invented an original system of numbering and that in a few days, he had gone beyond the twenty-four-thousand mark.
He had not written it down since anything he thought of once would never be lost to him.
I think his first stimulus was his discomfort at the fact that the famous thirty-three gauchos of Uruguayan history should have required two signs and two words instead of a single word and a single sign.
He then applied this absurd principle to the other numbers.
