Nothing Can Be Taught To

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

By Denying Scientific Principles, One May Maintain Any Paradox.

Among The Great Men Who Have Philosophized About [the Action Of The Tides], The One Who Surprised Me Most Is Kepler. He Was A Person Of Independent Genius, [but He] Became Interested In The Action Of The Moon On The Water, And In Other Occult Phenomena, And Similar Childishness.

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.

Who Would Dare Assert That We Know All There Is To Be Known?
