Isaac Newton on Motion
← Back to Isaac Newton Profile
“I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.”
“Every body continues in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed upon it.”
“The alternation of motion is ever proportional to the motive force impressed; and is made in the direction of the right line in which that force is impressed.”
