There is a single general space, a single vast immensity which we may freely call void: in it are unnumerable globes like this on which we live and grow, this space we declare to be infinite, since neither reason, convenience, sense-perception nor nature assign to it a limit.

GIORDANO BRUNO -
In this infinite space is placed our universe (whether by chance, by necessity, or by providence I do not now consider).
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 -
One only is immutable, eternal and ever endures, one and the same with itself. With this philosophy my spirit grows, my mind expands.
GIORDANO BRUNO -
I understand Being in all and over all, as there is nothing without participation in Being, and there is no being without Essence. Thus nothing can be free of the Divine Presence.
