Any sufficiently powerful formal system contains true statements that cannot be proven within it. Broke Hilbert's dream of a complete mathematics.
From Wikipedia
Gödel's incompleteness theorems are two theorems of mathematical logic that are concerned with the limits of provability in formal axiomatic theories. These results, published by Kurt Gödel in 1931, are important both in mathematical logic and in philosophy of mathematics. The theorems are interpreted as showing that Hilbert's program to find a complete and consistent set of axioms for all mathematics is impossible.
