Well, Newton created his three laws based on the studies made by the early scientists Aristotle, Galileo, and Copernicus.
Newton's First Law, pretty much a restatement of one of Galileo's ideas, is that a force is not needed to keep an object in motion. Newton decided, (with Galileo's help) that, "Hey... an object at rest stays at rest, but also has inertia so it can move in a continuous path or move on its own without a push or pull!"
Newton's Second Law, one that Newton came to conclusion with himself, is that when we move something, acceleration is created. But the object can't go as fast as we push or pull it, because its mass is in the relationship of an object's mass, the total net force, and acceleration.
Newton's Third Law is that you cannot touch without being touched! For example, in order to touch someone's arm or shoulder, it always touches you back. If you put force onto a wall by leaning on it, it gives that same force right back!
There's so much more you can learn about these laws, but here are the basics and I hope this is what you were looking for! :)
