Excerpt from New Elements of Geometry
And in testimony of the truth and immutability of the principles of geometry, Aristotle, the great mas ter of ancient philosophies, declared that the poles of the world Will be sooner removed out of their places, and the fabric of nature destroyed, than the foundations of geometry fail, or its conclusions be convinced of falsity.
