    it may be of some comfort to know that some geometric things are impossible to draw. this can make them tricky to visualize.

    not even all “2-dimensional” things can be drawn. a classic example of this is the klein bottle, (a 2-dimensional manifold) which would need 4 dimensions for a “proper representation” in euclidean space.
