Additional quotes by Johannes Kepler

Nu ne întrebăm în ce scop util cântă păsările, cântecul este bucuria lor de când au fost zămislite pentru cântat. La fel, n-ar trebui să ne întrebăm de ce spiritul omului se străduieşte să pătrundă secretele cerurilor. Diversitatea fenomenelor naturii e atât de mare, iar comorile ascunse în ceruri atât de bogate, tocmai pentru ca spiritul omului să nu fie nicicând lipsit de hrană proaspătă.
