Sir Isaac Newton is remembered as one of history's greatest scientists, whose discoveries transformed our understanding of physics, mathematics, and astronomy. Yet one of his most quoted observations has little to do with science and everything to do with human nature: "I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies but not the madness of people."
The quote reflects Newton's belief that while the laws governing the universe are predictable and can be explained through mathematics, human behaviour is often driven by emotions, impulses, and irrational decisions that are far more difficult to understand.
