Today, mathematicians in the most general sense divide into algebraists and analysts. Tattooing Euler’s identity identifies you as a member of the analyst tribe, you live and breathe limits, sequences, and measures. A tattoo of Hamilton’s i^2 = j^2 = k^2 = ijk = -1 would identify you as a member of the algebraist tribe, who lives and breathes commutators, cohomologies, and quotients.
