Italian astronomer, physicist and engineer, sometimes described as a polymath. Galileo has been called the "father of observational astronomy", the "father of modern physics", the "father of the scientific method", and the "father of modern science".
Mathematics is the language in which God has written the universe
Measure what can be measured, and make measurable what cannot be measured
It is a beautiful and delightful sight to behold the body of the Moon
All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them
In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual
You cannot teach a man anything, you can only help him find it within himself
One of the penalties of refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors
He who boasts lowers himself
Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it
By means of knowledge we raise ourselves above everybody else
Work is a necessary evil to be avoided
But only he who, himself enlightened, is not afraid of shadows
