Galileo Galilei on God

Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe.

Philosophy is written in this grand book⁠—I mean the Universe⁠—which stands continually open to our gaze, but it cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and interpret the characters in which it is written. It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles and other geometrical figures, without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it.

If you could see the earth illuminated when you were in a place as dark as night, it would look to you more splendid than the moon.

I, at any rate, am convinced that He does not throw dice.

Albert Einstein1879–1955

A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, ‘darkness’ on the walls of his cell.

C. S. Lewis1898–1963
