Are you aware that Isaac Newton made notable contributions to the world especially in science.

From #Yorùbá perspective, there are three laws of motion by Isaac Newton and everything has a relation with #Yorùbá proverb.

First law :

@Yorubaness

Everybody remains in its state of rest unless compel to change by an external force.

Yorùbá Proverb : Ẹni tí ń sùn, kìí sún.

Second law:

Time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it.

Yorùbá Proverb : Amukun ẹrú rẹ wo, oni òkè lè ń wo, ẹ ó wọ ìsàlẹ̀.

Third law :

For every action (force) in nature, there is equal and opposite reaction.

Yorùbá Proverb : Oko ta a ba sọ m'ọpe, l'ọpe ń sọ moni.

Gravitational law of attraction :

Any particle of matter in the universe attracts any other with a force varying directly as the product of the masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them.

Yorùbá Proverb :Laala to ròkè, ile ni n bo.

For those asking and those that intend to ask about Marital life of Isaac Newton.

*Although it was claimed that he was once engaged, Newton never married.*

Isaac Newton never married, and there's no conclusive evidence that he ever had a romantic relationship.

Don't blame scholars that are not romantic or those with little or no social life.

If you marry anyone of them, you need a lot of patience, endurance, tolerance and sacrifice.

But you will be happy in the end when you see the results in your children.

Best wishes!
