Inscription of Isaac Newton During an Optics Experiment

Isaac Newton was a universally attractive man that to this day makes science lovers, fanatical alchemists, and deep-thinking hermeticists gravitate towards his published works. He crafted a vibrant image of himself in many of his self-reflective notes, many of them published posthumously. From his competitive, scholastic desire to constantly improve himself to his love of the dark seclusion of his office, Newton had a very long and prosperous life.
