Top 5 quotes from Isaac Newton
"If I have ever made any valuable discoveries, it has been owing more to patient attention, than to any other talent."
"I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me."
"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants."
"A man may imagine things that are false, but he can only understand things that are true, for if the things be false, the apprehension of them is not understanding."
"No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess."
