Lucretius

The nature of the universe has by no means been made through divine power, seeing how great are the faults that mar it.
LUCRETIUS

Divine Mistake Nature Power See Universe
Thus the sum Forever is replenished, and we live As mortals by eternal give and take. The nations wax, the nations wane away; In a brief space the generations pass, And like to runners hand the lamp of life One unto other.

All things keep on in everlasting motion, Out of the infinite come the particles, Speeding above, below, in endless dance.

Anand Thakur
We cannot conceive of matter being formed of nothing, since things require a seed to start from.
LUCRETIUS

Forbear to spew out reason from your mind, but rather ponder everything with keen judgment; and if it seems true, own yourself vanquished, but, if it is false, gird up your loins to fight.
