More quotes by Isaac Newton
All knowledge and understanding of the Universe was no more than playing with stones and shells on the seashore of the vast imponderable ocean of truth.
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
I do not think that this [the universe] can be explained only by natural causes, and are forced to impute to the wisdom and ingenuity of an intelligent.
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
I understood. I have understood. I do understand.
Isaac Newton
In the absence of any other proof, the thumb alone would convince me of God's existence.
Isaac Newton
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
He that in ye mine of knowledge deepest diggeth, hath, like every other miner, ye least breathing time, and must sometimes at least come to terr. alt. for air.
Isaac Newton
To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction.
Isaac Newton
Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.
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
It is the weight, not numbers of experiments that is to be regarded.
Isaac Newton
Tact is the art of making a point without making an enemy.
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
Thus this Earth resembles a great animall or rather an inanimate vegetable, draws in aethereal breath for its dayly refreshment and vitall ferment and transpires again grosses exhalations. And, according to the condition of all other things living, ought to have its time of beginning, youth, old age and perishing.
Isaac Newton
Absolute, true and mathematical time, of itself, and from its own nature flows equably without relation to anything external.
Isaac Newton
If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.
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
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
God in the beginning formed matter in solid, massy, hard, impenetrable, movable particles, of such sizes and figures, and with such other properties, and in such proportion to space, as most conduced to the end for which he formed them.
Isaac Newton
