EULER'S HEALTH PROBLEMS BEGAN IN 1735 WHEN HE HAD A SEVERE FEVER AND ALMOST LOST HIS LIFE.
At least, I’ve got one eye left.
EULER WAS DISTINGUISHED BY THE PARIS ACADEMY. HIS PROPOSITION WAS ABOUT THE CALCULATION OF PLANETARY ORBITS AND THE MOTION OF THE MOON.
We could ask him for a statistic analysis of the shopping basket.
THE SIGHT OF HIS ILL EYE WORSENED DURING HIS STAY IN GERMANY TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT FREDERICK USED TO CALL HIM CYCLOPS.
How are you, Mr. Cyclops?
Fine, “Freddy”
IN 1771 HIS HOME WAS DESTROYED BY FIRE AND HE -WITH THE HELP OF PETER GRIMM- WAS ABLE SAVE HIS LIFE.
I’ve told you a hundred times not to shout "Lyö löylyä!" in the Sauna
Now, let’s go to the lake.
EULER SPENT HIS LAST 17 YEARS TOTALLY BLIND.
Hopefully, when I get retired my salary will be good enough to afford a short trip to Foligno or Strasburg.
Wow, wow
HE WAS, HOWEVER, ABLE TO CONTINUE WITH HIS WORK DESPITE HIS TOTAL BLINDNESS.
I shall write a letter to my friends from Italy, France, Finland and Spain to ask about the Ne.M.O. project.
HE WAS A HOME-LOVING MAN AND VERY FOND OF KIDS.
I’m thinking about joining the Ne.M.O. project.
EULER DIED ON 18TH SEPTEMBER 1783.
