For with what eyes of the mind was yourable to see that workhouse of such stupendous toil, in which he makes the world to be modelled and built by God? What materials, what bars, what machines, what servants, were employed in so vast a work? How could the air, fire, water, and earth, pay obedience and submit to the will of the architect? From whence arose those five forms, of which the rest were composed, so aptly contributing to frame the mind and produce the senses? It is tedious to go through all, as they are of such a sort that they look more like things to be desired than to be discovered. — Cicero art Historia vero testis temporum, lux veritatis, vita memoriae, magistra vitae, nuntia vetustatis, qua voce alia nisi oratoris immortalitati commendatur?History is truely the witness of times past, the light of truth, the life of memory, the teacher of life, the messenger of antiquity; whose voice, but the orators, can entrust her to immortality?De Oratore Book II; Chapter IX, section 36 — Cicero life
