Quotation from: The Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci

Written by: Leonardo da Vinci


The earth is not in the centre of the Sun's orbit nor at the centre
of the universe, but in the centre of its companion elements, and
united with them. And any one standing on the moon, when it and the
sun are both beneath us, would see this our earth and the element of
water upon it just as we see the moon, and the earth would light it
as it lights us.


The fundamental laws of the solar system (859-864).
