Johannes KeplerGeometry existed before the creation. It is co-eternal with the mind of God...Geometry provided God with a model for the Creation.
Johannes KeplerAs soon as somebody demonstrates the art of flying, settlers from our species of man will not be lacking on the Moon and Jupiter. Who would have believed that a huge ocean could be crossed more peacefully and safely than the the narrow expanse of the Adriatic, the Baltic Sea or the English Channel? Given ships or sails adapted to the breezes of heaven, there will be those who will not shrink from even that vast expanse.
