Quote

The infinity of All ever bringing forth anew, and even as infinite space is around us, so is infinite potentiality, capacity, reception, malleability, matter.

More quotes by Giordano Bruno

Image
It may be you fear more to deliver judgment upon me than I fear judgment.
Giordano Bruno
Image
Divine love does not weigh down, nor carry his servant captive and enslaved to the lowest depths, but raises him, supports him and magnifies him above all liberty whatsoever.
Giordano Bruno
Image
Perhaps your fear in passing judgement is greater than mine in receiving it.
Giordano Bruno
Image
I don't care if 1 is prime or not, if 2 is prime or not, if 3 is prime or not. All I care is that there are more stars in the heavens than primes in the earth.
Giordano Bruno
Image
I await your sentence with less fear than you pass it. The time will come when all will see what I see.
Giordano Bruno
Image
I who am in the night will move into the day.
Giordano Bruno
Image
I cleave the heavens and soar to the infinite. And while I rise from my own globe to others and penetrate ever further through the eternal field. That which others saw from afar, I leave far behind me.
Giordano Bruno
Image
There is in the universe neither center nor circumference.
Giordano Bruno
Image
The gems of philosophy are not less precious because they are not understood.
Giordano Bruno
Image
Our bodily eye findeth never an end, but is vanquished by the immensity of space.
Giordano Bruno
Image
The soul is not the body and it may be in one body or in another, and pass from body to body.
Giordano Bruno
Image
We delight in one knowable thing, which comprehends all that is knowable in one apprehensible, which draws together all that can be apprehended in a single being that includes all, above all in the one which is itself the all.
Giordano Bruno
Image
Those wise men knew God to be in things, and Divinity to be latent in Nature, working and glowing differently in different subjects and succeeding through diverse physical forms, in certain arrangements, in making them participants in her, I say, in her being, in her life and intellect.
Giordano Bruno
Image
I have held and hold souls to be immortal.... Speaking as a Catholic, they do not pass from body to body, but go to paradise, purgatory or hell. But I have reasoned deeply, and, speaking as a philosopher, since the soul is not found without body and yet is not body, it may be in one body or in another, and pass from body to body.
Giordano Bruno
Image
Since I have spread my wings to purpose high, The more beneath my feet the clouds I see, The more I give the winds my pinions free, Spurning the earth and soaring to the sky.
Giordano Bruno
Image
I have declared infinite worlds to exist beside this our earth. It would not be worthy of God to manifest Himself in less than an infinite universe.
Giordano Bruno
Image
Make then your forecasts, my lords Astrologers, with your slavish physicians, by means of those astrolabes with which you seek to discern the fantastic nine moving spheres in these you finally imprison your own minds, so that you appear to me but as parrots in a cage, while I watch you dancing up and down, turning and hopping within those circles.
Giordano Bruno
Image
The Divine Light is always in man, presenting itself to the senses and to the comprehension, but man rejects it.
Giordano Bruno
Image
The stars in the sky are really other suns like our own, around which orbit other planets. (paraphrase)
Giordano Bruno
Image
Truth does not change because it is, or is not, believed by a majority of the people.
