艾萨克·牛顿

“If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants.”

英语

“如果我比别人看得更远，那是因为我站在巨人的肩膀上。”

“To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction.”

英语

“每一个作用力都有一个大小相等、方向相反的反作用力。”

“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, 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.”

英语

“我不知道世人如何看我，但在我自己看来，我不过像是一个在海边嬉戏的男孩，偶尔找到一块更光滑的鹅卵石或一只更漂亮的贝壳，而真理的浩瀚大海仍未被发现地展现在我面前。”

“Truth is ever to be found in simplicity, and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things.”

英语

“真理总是在简洁中被发现，而不是在事物的繁杂与混乱中。”
