Quotes by George Polya. An George Polya Quote Library | The Gaiam Blog:

"Epitaph on Newton: Nature and Nature's law lay hid in night: God said, 'Let Newton be!,' and all was light.

[added by Sir John Collings Squire: It did not last: the Devil shouting 'Ho. Let Einstein be,' restored the status quo]

[Aaron Hill's version: O'er Nature's laws God cast the veil of night, Out blaz'd a Newton's soul and all was light.
