Everything has Divinity latent within itself. For she enfolds and imparts herself even unto the smallest beings, and from the smallest beings, according to their capacity.

Giordano Bruno

The single spirit doth simultaneously temper the whole together; this is the single soul of all things; all are filled with God .
GIORDANO BRUNO

All Doth Fill God Simultaneously Single Soul Spirit Temple Thing Together Whole
I fought, and therefore, believed in my victory. There is more to the fact that I didn’t fear death and preferred a brave death instead of a life of an idiot.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Believe Fought Therefore Victory
Everywhere there is incessant relative change in position throughout the universe, and the observer is always at the center of things.

Since I have spread my wings to purpose high, The more beneath my feet the clouds I see, The more I give the winds my pinions free, Spurning the earth and soaring to the sky.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Beneath Cloud Feel High More Purpose See Since Spread Wing
The being is altered, the fortune is varied, only the elements remaining what they are in substance, that same principle persevering which was always the one material principle, which is the true substance of things, eternal, ingenerable and incorruptible.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Alter Always Element Eternal Preserve Producible Substance True
You explain right well, and you shew that you understand argument and are not a mere sophist since you accept that which cannot be denied.
GIORDANO BRUNO

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
Our bodily eye findeth never an end, but is vanquished by the immensity of space.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Why, I say, do so few understand and apprehend the internal power?… He who in himself sees all things, is all things.
GIORDANO BRUNO

All Apprehenf Few Internal Power Say Thing Understand
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

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
That which we have lived is nothing; that which we live is a point; that which we have to live is not yet a point, but may be a point which, together, shall be and shall have been.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Have Joint Live Nothing Point Together
They dispute not in order to find or even to seek Truth, but for victory, and to appear the more learned and strenuous upholders of a contrary opinion. Such persons should be avoided by all who have not a good breastplate of patience.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Appear Contrary Dispute Even Learn More Opinion Order Seek Truth Victory
Everything that makes diversity of kinds, of species, differences, properties… everything that consists in generation, decay, alteration and change is not an entity, but a condition and circumstance of entity and being, which is one, infinite, immobile, subject, matter, life, death, truth, lies, good and evil.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Alteration Change Consist Decay Difference Diversity Everything Generation Kind Make Property Species
Of the eternal corporeal substance (which is not producible ex nihilo, nor reducible ad nihilum, but rarefiable, condensable, formable, arrangeable, and “fashionable”) the composition is dissolved, the complexion is changed, the figure is modified.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Arrangeable Consider Corporeal Eternal Ex Formable Nihil Producible Rarefiable Substance
God is infinite, so His universe must be too.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Be God Infinite Must Too Universe
