Cosmic Creations

“The universe is spherical in shape and finite in size. Outside it is infinite void, which enables the universe to breathe, as it were. At the centre is the central fire, the Hearth of the Universe, called by various names such as the Tower or Watch-tower of Zeus, the Throne of Zeus, the Mother of the Gods. In this central fire is located the governing principle, the force which directs the movement and activity of the universe.”

– Thomas Little Heath, “The Copernicus of Antiquity Aristarchus of Samos” (1920) pg.22,The Pythagoreans
