That was when a greater spirit in our time was completely imbued inwardly with the harmony of the spheres, with the harmony in the construction of the world, and then expressed this in mathematical laws - in the so-called Keplerian laws. These are apparently quite dry and abstract - but in Kepler's case they were born out of an understanding of the harmony of the universe. We can hear this from Kepler himself when he says: \"So that I could find what I found, I had to go to the sacred mysteries of the Egyptians, stole their temple vessels and made the sacrifice with them that led me to what I now lay in the lap of mankind as laws, so that it would only be understood centuries later.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"43.
