Galileo Galilei — "All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to disc…"

"I do not think it is necessary to believe that the same God who gave us our senses, our reason, and our intellect, also intended us to forego their use."

"What is important is to understand the language of nature, not to impose on it our own prejudices."

"And finally, if the earth were to stop spinning, then the water in the oceans would fly off, and the mountains would crumble. So it must be moving."

"The purpose of science is not to open the door to infinite wisdom, but to set a limit to infinite error."

"It is not necessary to examine all the arguments against a position, but only the strongest."
