“Sir Isaac, during the long course of years he enjoyed, was never sensible to any passion, was not subject to the common frailties of mankind, nor had any commerce with women—a circumstance which was assured me by the physician and surgeon who attended him in his last moments” - Voltaire (in a letter, written shortly after Newton’s death, published in 1894)

Voltaire was a bitch, Newton lost a shit ton of money when he gave into FOMO during the South Sea company bubble. He might not have gotten laid but he was susceptible to other passions and madnesses.
