Given for one instance an intelligence which could comprehend all the forces by which nature is animated and the respective situations of the beings who compose it -- an intelligence sufficiently vast to submit these data to anlysis -- it would embrace in the same formula the movements of the greatest bodies and those of the lightest atom; for it, nothing would be uncertain and the future, as the past, would be present to its eyes.

Laplace 1795, quoted by Hodges (p.64) from English transation of Essai sur les probabilitEs.
