Giordano Bruno

GIORDANO BRUNO

All Clear Indication Other Own Receive Sign Testimony Virtue
God is infinite, so His universe must be too.

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

The soul is not the body and it may be in one body or in another, and pass from body to body.

Being Capacity Dignity Enhold Everything Himself Smallest
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

If the first button of one’s coat is wrongly buttoned, all the rest will be crooked.

We delight in one knowable thing, which comprehends all that is knowable; in one apprehensible, which draws together all that can be apprehended; in a single being that includes all, above all in the one which is itself the all.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Apprehensible Comprehend Delight Draw Knowable Thing Together
The universe is then one, infinite, immobile. … It is not capable of comprehension and therefore is endless and limitless, and to that extent infinite and indeterminable, and consequently immobile.
GIORDANO BRUNO
