Nature's Great Book Is Written In Mathematics.

Some, Merely To Contradict What I Had Said, Did Not Scruple To Cast Doubt Upon Things They Had Seen With Their Own Eyes Again And Again.

And Who Can Doubt That It Will Lead To The Worst Disorders When Minds Created Free By God Are Compelled To Submit Slavishly To An Outside Will? When We Are Told To Deny Our Senses And Subject Them To The Whim Of Others? When People Devoid Of Whatsoever Competence Are Made Judges Over Experts And Are Granted Authority To Treat Them As They Please? These Are The Novelties Which Are Apt To Bring About The Ruin Of Commonwealths And The Subversion Of The State.

Being Infinitely Amazed, So Do I Give Thanks To God, Who Has Been Pleased To Make Me The First Observer Of Marvelous Things, Unrevealed To Bygone Ages.

Showing A Greater Fondness For Their Own Opinions Than For Truth, They Sought To Deny And Disprove The New Things Which, If They Had Cared To Look For Themselves, Their Own Senses Would Have Demonstrated To Them.

Scripture Is A Book About Going To Heaven. It's Not A Book About How The Heavens Go.
