Isaac Newton
My principal method for defeating error and heresy is by establishing the truth. One purposes to fill a bushel with tares, but if I can fill it first with wheat, I may defy his attempts.
Isaac Newton
I understood. I have understood. I do understand.
Isaac Newton
I feign no hypotheses.
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
All the characters of the Passion agree to the year 34 and that is the only year to which they all agree.
Isaac Newton
What we know is a drop, what we don't know is an ocean.
Isaac Newton
When the adversaries of Erasmus had got the Trinity into his edition, they threw by their manuscript as an old almanac out of date.
Isaac Newton
