More quotes by Isaac Newton
Truth is the offspring of silence and meditation.
Isaac Newton
If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.
Isaac Newton
By such deductions the law of gravitation is rendered probable, that every particle attracts every other particle with a force which varies inversely as the square of the distance. The law thus suggested is assumed to be universally true.
Isaac Newton
Hypotheses non fingo. I frame no hypotheses.
Isaac Newton
Those qualities of bodies that cannot be intended and remitted [i.e., qualities that cannot be increased and diminished] and that belong to all bodies on which experiments can be made should be taken as qualities of all bodies universally.
Isaac Newton
Therefore, the causes assigned to natural effects of the same kind must be, so far as possible, the same.
Isaac Newton
I feign no hypotheses.
Isaac Newton
Every particle of matter is attracted by or gravitates to every other particle of matter with a force inversely proportional to the squares of their distances.
Isaac Newton
A cylinder of air reaching to the top of the atmosphere is of equal weight with a cylinder of water about 33 feet high.
Isaac Newton
For the Rays, to speak properly, have no Colour. In them there is nothing else than a certain power and disposition to stir up a sensation of this Colour or that.
Isaac Newton
We are not to consider the world as the body of God: he is an uniform being, void of organs, members, or parts and they are his creatures, subordinate to him, and subservient to his will.
Isaac Newton
The changing of Bodies into Light, and Light into Bodies, is very conformable to the Course of Nature, which seems delighted with Transmutations.
Isaac Newton
Oh Diamond! Diamond! thou little knowest the mischief done! [Apocryphal]
Isaac Newton
To any action there is always an opposite and equal reaction in other words, the actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal and always opposite in direction.
Isaac Newton
Atheism is so senseless and odious to mankind that it never had many professors.
Isaac Newton
Do not Bodies and Light act mutually upon one another that is to say, Bodies upon Light in emitting, reflecting, refracting and inflecting it, and Light upon Bodies for heating them, and putting their parts into a vibrating motion wherein heat consists?
Isaac Newton
The alternation of motion is ever proportional to the motive force impressed and is made in the direction of the right line in which that force is impressed.
Isaac Newton
The other part of the true religion is our duty to man. We must love our neighbour as our selves, we must be charitable to all men for charity is the greatest of graces, greater then even faith or hope & covers a multitude of sins. We must be righteous & do to all men as we would they should do to us.
Isaac Newton
All the characters of the Passion agree to the year 34 and that is the only year to which they all agree.
Isaac Newton
As I am writing, another illustration of ye generation of hills proposed above comes into my mind. Milk is as uniform a liquor as ye chaos was. If beer be poured into it & ye mixture let stand till it be dry, the surface of ye curdled substance will appear as rugged & mountanous as the Earth in any place.
Isaac Newton
