Sir Isaac Newton | The Language of the Natural World

The two men walked out the door and into the garden. The weather was warm, with the sun falling over the horizon, almost blinding them as it set. They talked and strolled to an apple tree and sitting beneath it, sipped their tea as they watched the tall grass move against the wind. One of the men turned to his friend and spoke.


“You know, I was just in the same situation not long ago, when the notion of gravitation came into my mind.

“I’m sure it weighed on you heavily,” said the man with a chuckle.

The other man merely smiled and looked out across the field in deep contemplation.

“It was occasioned by the fall of an apple,” he said finally. “And I wondered to myself, why should that apple always descend perpendicularly to the ground…?”
