Saved someones live. Pulled them out of the water when they were drowning. Its a strange feeling knowing someone wouldn't be there if it weren't for you. I don't feel like some hero or anything, I just happened to be there at the right time.

What's the intersection between math (specifically algebra) and literature? There was an interesting conversation about this amidst some professors at my uni, I overheard bits of it but I largely missed it. I get philosophy especially after Descartes but what's the intersection with literature more generally?
