“Modesty teaches us to speak of the ancients with respect, especially when we are not very familiar with their works. Newton, who knew them practically by heart, had the greatest respect for them, and considered them to be men of genius and superior intelligence who had carried their discoveries in every field much further than we today suspect, judging from what remains of their writings. More ancient writings have been lost than have been preserved, and perhaps our new discoveries are of less value than those that we have lost.” MenWritingHeartHas BeensTodayValuesLostSpeakTeachFieldsJudgingGeniusDiscoveryRemainsAncientFamiliarSuperiorsSuspectsModestyBe A ManNewtonNew DiscoveriesSuperior Intelligence Author:Francis Atterbury
