Misattribution.

Thst would be a paraphrase of some of the writings of Kepler on geometry.

CHALLENGE

As Euclid predates Kepler by 2000 years I think I'll credit Euclid with the quote "verbatim". That quote is sourced multiple places credited to Euclid.

Perhaps it was old Johannes that was inspired by "the Father of Geometry" (sourced multiple)
