There is no movement, said the bearded sage.The other remained silent, and began to walk before him.He could not have argued more strongly;Everyone praised the clever answer.But, gentlemen, this funny caseBrings another example to my mind:After all, every day the Sun walks before us,Yet the stubborn Galileo is right.
There is no movement, said the bearded sage.
The other remained silent, and began to walk before him.
He could not have argued more strongly;
Everyone praised the clever answer.
But, gentlemen, this funny case
Brings another example to my mind:
After all, every day the Sun walks before us,
Yet the stubborn Galileo is right.
