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

Consider Infinite Necessity Now Place Providence Space Universe
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
Magicians can do more by means of faith than physicians by the truth.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Faith Magician Mean More Physician Truth
The soul, in its power, is present in some way in the entire universe, because it apprehends substances which are not included in the body in which it lives, although they are related to it.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Apprehend Body Entire Power Present Some Soul Substance Universe Way
Our … reduceth to a single origin and relateth to a single , and maketh contraries to coincide so that there is one primal foundation both of origin and of end.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Both Concise Contrairies Foundation Masketh Origin Our Primal Reduceth Single
I need not instruct you of my belief: Time gives all and takes all away ; everything changes but nothing perishes ;
GIORDANO BRUNO

All Away Belive Change Everything Give Instruct Need Perhaps Take Time
I have declared infinite worlds to exist beside this our earth. It would not be worthy of God to manifest Himself in less than an infinite universe.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Declare Earth Exist Infinite World
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
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
The one infinite is perfect , in simplicity , of itself, absolutely, nor can aught be greater or better, This is the one Whole, God , universal Nature , occupying all space, of whom naught but infinity can give the perfect image or semblance.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Absolute Aught Better Greater Ine Infinite Itself Perfect Simplicity
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
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

Being Capacity Dignity Enhold Everything Himself Smallest
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
But I have reasoned deeply, and, speaking as a philosopher, since the soul is not found without body and yet is not body, it may be in one body or in another, and pass from body to body.
GIORDANO BRUNO

Body Deeply Found Pass Philosopher Reasonable Sepak Since Without
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
I await your sentence with less fear than you pass it. The time will come when all will see what I see.
GIORDANO BRUNO

All Await Come Less Pass See Sentemnnce Substance Will
