The miracle of the mathematics and the physics

The miracle of the validity of the language of the mathematics for the formulation of the laws of the physics is a wonderful gift that we neither understand we do not even deserve. We should be grateful for it and to trust that it will keep on being valid in the future investigation and that it will spread, for good or for evil, for our pleasure, even if also it does it for our puzzlement, to wide branches of the knowledge.

Eugene Paul WignerVía Boletín 204 (PDF) of the RSME.
Really it is fascinating to realize how a little so abstract and formal like the mathematical language, which we already saw that he was looking for the relation between the forms, in the end it is always possible to fit in the physical reality, well across distinguishing equations, as in case of the overhead power cable or the Second Law of Kepler, good across the simple geometry.
And do you say yet that the miracles do not exist?
