More quotes by Giordano Bruno
When we consider the being and substance of that universe in which we are immutably set, we shall discover that neither we ourselves nor any substance doth suffer death. For nothing is in fact diminished in its substance, but all things, wandering through infinite space, undergo change of aspect.
Giordano Bruno
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
What you receive from others is a testimony to their virtue but all that you do for others is the sign and clear indication of your own.
Giordano Bruno
What can be more stupid than to be in pain about future things and absent ones which at present are not felt?
Giordano Bruno
The hammers must be swung in cadence, when more than one is hammering the iron.
Giordano Bruno
With luck on your side, you can do without brains.
Giordano Bruno
The Divine Light is always in man, presenting itself to the senses and to the comprehension, but man rejects it.
Giordano Bruno
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
Innumerable suns exist innumerable earths revolve around these suns in a manner similar to the way the seven planets revolve around our sun. Living beings inhabit these worlds.
Giordano Bruno
All things are in all.
Giordano Bruno
Time takes all and gives all
Giordano Bruno
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
I await your sentence with less fear than you pass it. The time will come when all will see what I see.
Giordano Bruno
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
In space there are countless constellations, suns and planets we see only the suns because they give light the planets remain invisible, for they are small and dark. There are also numberless earths circling around their suns.
Giordano Bruno
Everything that makes diversity of kinds, of species, differences, properties... everything that consists in generation, decay, alteration and change is not an entity, but a condition and circumstance of entity and being, which is one, infinite, immobile, subject, matter, life, death, truth, lies, good and evil.
Giordano Bruno
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
The soul is not the body and it may be in one body or in another, and pass from body to body.
Giordano Bruno
I fought, and therefore, believed in my victory. There is more to the fact that I didn't fear death and preferred a brave death instead of a life of an idiot.
Giordano Bruno
The stars in the sky are really other suns like our own, around which orbit other planets. (paraphrase)
Giordano Bruno
