More quotes by Isaac Newton

Image
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
Image
Ax: 100 Every thing doth naturally persevere in yt state in wch it is unlesse it bee interrupted by some externall cause, hence... [a] body once moved will always keepe ye same celerity, quantity & determination of its motion.
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

What we know is a drop, what we don't know is an ocean.
Isaac Newton
Image
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
Image
When two forces unite, their efficiency double.
Isaac Newton
Image
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
Image
It is the weight, not numbers of experiments that is to be regarded.
Isaac Newton
Image
Hypotheses non fingo. I frame no hypotheses.
Isaac Newton
Image
To explain all nature is too difficult a task for any one man or even for any one age
Isaac Newton
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Whence arises all that order and beauty we see in the world?
Isaac Newton
Image
I have not been able to discover the cause of those properties of gravity from phenomena, and I frame no hypotheses for whatever is not deduced from the phenomena is to be called a hypothesis, and hypotheses, whether metaphysical or physical, whether of occult qualities or mechanical, have no place in experimental philosophy.
Isaac Newton
Image
All my discoveries have been made in answer to prayer.
Isaac Newton
Image
God is able to create particles of matter of several sizes and figures and perhaps of different densities and forces, and thereby to vary the laws of nature, and make worlds of several sorts in several parts of the Universe.
Isaac Newton
Image
Pictures, propagated by motion along the fibers of the optic nerves in the brain, are the cause of vision.
Isaac Newton
Image
We account the Scriptures of God to be the most sublime philosophy.
Isaac Newton
Image
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.

Because of Diamond, I have had to begin much of the work afresh. I will not, however, rid myself of her, nor even punish her. She knew not what she was doing, and that which she did was for my protection and for love of my person. Her place remains at my side or against my feet when I lie abed.
