I have held and hold souls to be immortal…. Speaking as a Catholic, they do not pass from body to body, but go to paradise, purgatory or hell.

Giordano Bruno

I beg you, reject antiquity, tradition, faith, and authority! Let us begin anew by doubting everything we assume has been proven!
GIORDANO BRUNO

Antiquity Authority Beg Faith Reject
Our bodily eye findeth never an end, but is vanquished by the immensity of space.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Body But End Eye Immensity Space Vanquished
Those wise men knew God to be in things, and Divinity to be latent in Nature, working and glowing differently in different subjects and succeeding through diverse physical forms, in certain arrangements, in making them participants in her, I say, in her being, in her life and intellect.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Differently Divinity Glow Go Knew Latent Men Nature Subject Success Thing Work
Beautiful sights arouse feelings of love, and contrary sights bring feelings of disgrace and hate. And the emotions of the soul and spirit bring something additional to the body itself, which exists under the control of the soul and the direction of the spirit.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Arouse Beautiful Contrary Disgrace Feeling Hate Love Sight
It may be you fear more to deliver judgment upon me than I fear judgment.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Deliver Fear Judgement May More Upon
Nature is none other than God in all things. Animals and plants are living effects of Nature; Whence all of God is in all things.
GIORDANO BRUNO

All Animal Effect God Living Nature Plant Thing
Nature is none other than God in things. Animals and plants are living effects of Nature; whence all of God is in all things. Think thus, of the sun in the crocus, in the narcissus, in the heliotrope, in the rooster, in the lion.
GIORDANO BRUNO

All Animal Effect God Living Nature Other Plant Than Thing
Maybe you who condemn me are in greater fear than I who am condemned.
GIORDANO BRUNO

I regard them as earth’s heroes. But I do not wish to believe them without cause, nor to accept those propositions whose antitheses (as you must have understood if you are not both blind and deaf) are so compellingly true.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Accept Cause Compelling Regard True Understood Wish
I pray you, magnificent Sir, do not trouble yourself to return to us, but await our coming to you.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Await Come Magnificent Pray Return Sir Trouble
The hammers must be swung in cadence, when more than one is hammering the iron.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Cadence Hammer Iron More Must Swung
Perchance you who pronounce my sentence are in greater fear than I who receive it.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Greater Perchance Pronounce Recieve Sentence
In space there are countless constellations, suns and planets; we see only the suns because they give light; the planets remain invisible, for they are small and dark.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Constellation Countless Give Light Planet Sea Spare Sun
What you receive from others is a testimony to their virtue; but all that you do for others is the sign and clear indication of your own.
GIORDANO BRUNO

All Clear Indication Other Own Receive Sign Testimony Virtue
Magicians can do more by means of faith than physicians by the truth.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Faith Magician Mean More Physician Truth
I do not know when, but I know that many have come in this century to develop arts and sciences, sow the seeds of a new culture that will flourish, unexpected, sudden, just when the power is deluded into believing they have won.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Art Century Come Develop Know Many Science When
