Can I Quote Isaac Newton

I would like to insert a quote by Sir Isaac Newton at the end of a film I am producing. Can I do this or would his great-great-great-great grandchildren try to sue me or something? I will totally credit him with the quote by putting his name along with it. I'm just not sure what I can or cannot do in this situation. Any one got any info on something like this?
