Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

There is a pinciple in the heart of music which has yet to be discovered.

According to this view of the matter, there is nothing casual in the formation of Metamorphic Rocks. All strata, once buried deep enough, (and due TIME allowed!!!) must assume that state,-none can escape. All records of former worlds must ultimately perish.

Occurrences which according to received theories ought not to happen, are the facts which serve as clues to new discoveries

Geology, in the magnitude and sublimity of the objects of which it treats, undoubtedly ranks, in the scale of the sciences, next to astronomy.

The stars are the land-marks of the universe.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
