I can see so far because I stood on the shoulders of giants.
Isaac Newton
Image
The kingdoms represented by the second and third Beasts, or the Bear and Leopard, are again described by Daniel in his last Prophecy written in the third year of Cyrus over Babylon , the year in which he conquered Persia. For this Prophecy is a commentary upon the Vision of the Ram and He-Goat.
Isaac Newton
Image
Atheism is so senseless. When I look at the solar system, I see the earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amounts of heat and light. This did not happen by chance.
Isaac Newton
Image
A man may imagine things that are false, but he can only understand things that are true, for if the things be false, the apprehension of them is not understanding.
Isaac Newton
Image
That one body may act upon another at a distance through a vacuum, without the mediation of any thing else, by and through which their action and force may be conveyed from one to another, is to me so great an absurdity, that I believe no man, who has in philosophical matters a compentent faculty of thinking, can ever fall into it.
Isaac Newton
Image
If I had stayed for other people to make my tools and things for me, I had never made anything.
Isaac Newton
Image
I know not how I seem to others, but to myself I am but a small child wandering upon the vast shores of knowledge, every now and then finding a small bright pebble to content myself with while the vast ocean of undiscovered truth lay before me.
Isaac Newton
Image
Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.
Isaac Newton
Image
This most beautiful system of the sun, planets and comets, could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent and powerful Being.
Isaac Newton
Image
Godliness consists in the knowledge love & worship of God, Humanity in love, righteousness & good offices towards man.

OUR ORDINATION: Sir Isaac Newton, 1642 – 1747 About the times of the End, a body of men will be raised up who will turn their attention to the prophecies, and insist upon their literal interpretation, in the midst of much clamor and opposition.
Isaac Newton
Image
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
Image
I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.
Isaac Newton
Image
How came the bodies of animals to be contrived with so much art, and for what ends were their several parts? Was the eye contrived without skill in Opticks, and the ear without knowledge of sounds?...and these things being rightly dispatch’d, does it not appear from phænomena that there is a Being incorporeal, living, intelligent...?
Isaac Newton
Image
I shall not mingle conjectures with certainties.
Isaac Newton
Image
I have a fundamental belief in the Bible as the Word of God, written by those who were inspired. I study the Bible daily.
Isaac Newton
Image
The Prophecies of Daniel are all of them related to one another, as if they were but several parts of one general Prophecy, given at several times. The first is the easiest to be understood, and every following Prophecy adds something new to the former.
Isaac Newton
Image
The great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.
Isaac Newton
Image
What we know is a drop, what we don't know is an ocean.
Isaac Newton
Image
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
