"I wish, my dear Kepler that we could have a good laugh together at the extraordinary stupidity of the mob. What do you think of the foremost philosophers of this University? In spite of my oft-repeated efforts and invitations, they have refused, with the obstinacy of a glutted adder, to look at the planets or Moon or my telescope."
--Galileo Galilei
“It is surely harmful to souls to make it a heresy to believe what is proved.”
--Galileo Galilei
