The Sun is a mass of fiery stone, a little larger than Greece.
All other things have a portion of everything, but Mind is infinite and self-ruled, and is mixed with nothing but is all alone by itself.
Appearances are a glimpse of the unseen.
Everything has a natural explanation. The moon is not a god but a great rock and the sun a hot rock.
Appearances are but a glimpse of what is hidden.
It is not I who have lost the Athenians, but the Athenians who have lost me.
