Et ad hoc est dicendum, sicut dicit Phylosophus in secundo De Celo, cum querit quare celum movetur ab oriente in occidentem et non e converso; ibi enim dicit quod consimiles questiones vel a multa stultitia vel a multa presumptione procedunt, propterea quod sunt supra intellectum nostrum. | (75) Then the argument is pushed further, and it is asked: why was the hemispherical elevation rather on this side than the other? To this we must answer according to what the Philosopher says in the Second De Caelo, when he asks why the heavens move from east to west, and not the other way. For there he says that such questions arise from great folly or from great presumption, because they transcend our intellect. |
