Top 4 David Kahn Quotes (2025 Update)

1. “Much of the history of cryptology of this time is a patchwork, a crazy quilt of unrelated items, sprouting, flourishing, withering. Only toward the Western Renaissance does the accreting knowledge begin to build up a momentum. The story of cryptology during these years is, in other words, exactly the story of mankind.”

— David Kahn

2. “I said he’s the best at what he does. Not at what I do.”

— David Kahn

3. “Every weapon of cryptanalytic science – which in the stratospheric realm of this solution drew heavily upon mathematics, using group theory, congruences, Poisson distributions – was thrown into the fray.”

— David Kahn

4. “The multiple human needs and desires that demand privacy among two or more people in the midst of social life must inevitably lead to cryptology wherever men thrive and wherever they write. Cultural diffusion seems a less likely explanation for its occurrence in so many areas, many of them distant and isolated.”

— David Kahn
