"But just as much as it is easy to find the differential of a given quantity, so it is difficult to find the integral of a given differential. Moreover, sometimes we cannot say with certainty whether the integral of a given quantity can be found or not."

~Johann Bernoulli (6 August 1667 – 1 January 1748)
