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
Passion is the genesis of genius
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
Dare to think for yourself
The greatest happiness is not being dominated by happiness
To perceive is to suffer
The secret of being a bore is to tell everything
Take things always by their smooth handle
There is nothing more tragic than to find an individual bogged down in the length of life, devoid of breadth
