Galileo Galilei Quotes
Oh, my dear Kepler, how I wish that we could have one hearty laugh together.

Why are you not here? what shouts of laughter we should have at this glorious folly! and to hear the professor of philosophy at Pisa laboring before the grand duke with logical arguments, as if with magical incantations, to charm the new planets out of the sky.
