More quotes by Isaac Newton
If I am anything, which I highly doubt, I have made myself so by hard work.
Isaac Newton
The main Business of Natural Philosophy is to argue from Phænomena without feigning Hypotheses, and to deduce Causes from Effects till we come to the very first Cause, which certainly is not mechanical and not only to unfold the Mechanism of the World, but chiefly to resolve these, and to such like Questions.
Isaac Newton
Absolute, true and mathematical time, of itself, and from its own nature flows equably without relation to anything external.
Isaac Newton
You ask me how, with so much study, I manage to retene my health. Morpheus is my last companion without 8 or 9 hours of him yr correspondent is not worth one scavenger's peruke. My practices did at ye first hurt my stomach, but now I eat heartily enou' as y' will see when I come down beside you.
Isaac Newton
Poetry is a kind of ingenious nonsense.
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
I consider my greatest accomplishment to be lifelong celibacy.
Isaac Newton
The seed of a tree has the nature of a branch or twig or bud. It is a part of the tree, but if separated and set in the earth to be better nourished, the embryo or young tree contained in it takes root and grows into a new tree.
Isaac Newton
If others would think as hard as I did, then they would get similar results.
Isaac Newton
The Ignis Fatuus is a vapor shining without heat.
Isaac Newton
As a blind man has no idea of colors, so we have no idea of the manner by which the all-wise God perceives and understands all things.
Isaac Newton
Pictures, propagated by motion along the fibers of the optic nerves in the brain, are the cause of vision.
Isaac Newton
All my discoveries have been made in answer to prayer.
Isaac Newton
Centripetal force is the force by which bodies are drawn from all sides, are impelled, or in any way tend, toward some point as to a center.
Isaac Newton
I do not feign hypotheses.
Isaac Newton
We are to admit no more causes of natural things than such as are both true and sufficient to explain their appearances.
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 way to chastity is not to struggle directly with incontinent thoughts but to avert the thoughts by some imployment, or by reading, or meditating on other things.
Isaac Newton
The great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.
Isaac Newton
Truth is the offspring of silence and meditation.
Isaac Newton
