Ptolemy said, the rays of light come to us in straight lines, because that is the shortest path, and he deduced from the reflexion of light, that light passes from any point in its course before incidence, to any other in its reflected course, by the shortest paths, and in the least time, its velocity being uniform and equal before and after reflexion.
