The '''Well-Ordering Theorem''' was proved by Zermelos in 1904, and it states:
−
The love that we came to know

<blockquote>
−
They call it Xanadu
+
''Every set can be well-ordered''.
−
 
+
</blockquote>
−

+
This result surprised [[mathematician]]s everywhere. The Well-Ordering Theorem is equivalent of the [[Axiom of Choice]], and no well-ordering relation has ever been explicitly constructed for [[uncountable set]]s. Thus, the mathematicians who reject the Axiom of Choice also reject this theorem.
