things move around

While Lucretius was right about some things:

• Atoms are in constant motion (2.62)
• There are other worlds than Earth (2.1048)
• Centaurs never existed (5.878)
• Thunder comes after lightning because sound is slower than light (6.164)

…and wrong about others:

• Atoms move faster than light (2.142)
• Images are caused by films thrown off from the surface of things (4.26)
• Erotic movements are undesirable for women (4.1263)
• The moon and sun as perceived by us are actual size (5.564)

…he was spot on about one thing in particular:

• tantum religio potuit suadere malorum (1.101)

Actually I still think centaurs might have existed.
