Sir Isaac Newton ( 4 January 1643 — 31 March 1727) was an English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, and natural philosopher who is widely regarded as one of the most influential scientists in history. He is best known for his work on the laws of motion, which form the basis of classical mechanics, and for his development of calculus. He made major contributions to the study of light and optics and is also credited with the development of the reflecting telescope. Newton’s laws of motion, along with his law of universal gravitation, helped to explain the motion of objects on Earth and in the universe, and his work laid the foundation for much of modern science.
When two forces unite, their efficiency double.“He who thinks half-heartedly will not believe in God; but he who really thinks has to believe in God.” ~ Isaac Newton“A man may imagine things that are false, but he can only understand things that are true, for if the things be false, the apprehension of them is not understanding.” ~ Isaac Newton“My powers are ordinary. Only my application brings me success.” ~ Isaac Newton“If I had stayed for other people to make my tools and things for me, I had never made anything.” ~ Isaac Newton“I know not how I seem to others, but to myself I am but a small child wandering upon the vast shores of knowledge, every now and then finding a small bright pebble to content myself with while the vast ocean of undiscovered truth lay before me.” ~ Isaac Newton“I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.” ~ Isaac Newton“All knowledge and understanding of the Universe was no more than playing with stones and shells on the seashore of the vast imponderable ocean of truth.” ~ Isaac Newton“Atheism is so senseless. When I look at the solar system, I see the earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amounts of heat and light. This did not happen by chance.” ~ Isaac Newton“If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.” ~ Isaac Newton“Live your life as an Exclamation rather than an Explanation” ~ Isaac Newton“Gravity explains the motions of the planets, but it cannot explain who sets the planets in motion.” ~ Isaac Newton“Truth is ever to be found in the simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.” ~ Isaac Newton
