Who Would Dare Assert That We Know

The Grand Duke [of Tuscany] ...after Observing The Medicaean Plants Several Times With Me ... Has Now Invited Me To Attach Myself To Him With The Annual Salary Of One Thousand Florins, And With The Title Of Philosopher And Principal Mathematicial To His Highness; Without The Duties Of Office To Perform, But With The Most Complete Leisure; So That I Can Complete My Treatises.

I Do Not Know What To Say In A Case So Surprising, So Unlooked For And So Novel.

I Would Say Here Something That Was Heard From An Ecclesiastic Of The Most Eminent Degree: The Intention Of The Holy Spirit Is To Teach Us How One Goes To Heaven, Not How The Heavens Go.

Nothing Can Be Taught To A Man, Only It's Possibly To Help Him To Discover It Inside.

Names And Attributes Must Be Accommodated To The Essence Of Things, And Not The Essence To The Names, Since Things Come First And Names Afterwards.
