Sir Isaac Newton Was Asked

How Came The Bodies Of Animals To Be Contrived With So Much Art, And For What Ends Were Their Several Parts? Was The Eye Contrived Without Skill In Opticks, And The Ear Without Knowledge Of Sounds?...and These Things Being Rightly Dispatch’d, Does It Not Appear From Phænomena That There Is A Being Incorporeal, Living, Intelligent...?

Definition Of Inertia: 'the Vis Insita, Or Innate Force Of Matter, Is A Power Of Resisting By Which Every Body, As Much As In It Lies, Endeavours To Preserve Its Present State, Whether It Be Of Rest Or Of Moving Uniformly Forward In A Straight Line.

As I Am Writing, Another Illustration Of Ye Generation Of Hills Proposed Above Comes Into My Mind. Milk Is As Uniform A Liquor As Ye Chaos Was. If Beer Be Poured Into It & Ye Mixture Let Stand Till It Be Dry, The Surface Of Ye Curdled Substance Will Appear As Rugged & Mountanous As The Earth In Any Place.

Is Not Fire A Body Heated So Hot As To Emit Light Copiously? For What Else Is A Red Hot Iron Than Fire? And What Else Is A Burning Coal Than Red Hot Wood?

No Being Exists Or Can Exist Which Is Not Related To Space In Some Way. God Is Everywhere, Created Minds Are Somewhere, And Body Is In The Space That It Occupies; And Whatever Is Neither Everywhere Nor Anywhere Does Not Exist. And Hence It Follows That Space Is An Effect Arising From The First Existence Of Being, Because When Any Being Is Postulated, Space Is Postulated.
