More quotes by Leonardo da Vinci
The good painter must paint two things: a person and the essence of his soul.
Leonardo da Vinci
Every man at three years old is half his height
Leonardo da Vinci
Nature varies the seed according to the variety of the things she desires to produce in the world.
Leonardo da Vinci
In an atmosphere of uniform density the most distant things seen through it, such as the mountains, in consequence of the great quantity of atmosphere which is between your eye and them, will appear blue. Therefore you should make the building... wall which is more distant less defined and bluer... five times as far away, make five times as blue.
Leonardo da Vinci
The painter has the Universe in his mind and hands.
Leonardo da Vinci
True and great love springs out of great knowledge, and where you know little you can love but little or not at all.
Leonardo da Vinci
Nothing is more apt to deceive us than our own judgment of our work. We derive more benefit from having our faults pointed out by our enemies than from hearing the opinions of friends.
Leonardo da Vinci
Let not your rage or malice destroy a life.
Leonardo da Vinci
The five senses are the ministers of the soul.
Leonardo da Vinci
Whoever in debate quotes authority uses not intellect, but memory.
Leonardo da Vinci
Nothing is hidden under the sun.
Leonardo da Vinci
Wherever good fortune enters, envy lays siege to the place and attacks it and when it departs, sorrow and repentance remain behind.
Leonardo da Vinci
Make your work to be in keeping with your purpose
Leonardo da Vinci
Details make perfection, and perfection is not a detail.
Leonardo da Vinci
It is a far worthier thing to read by the light of experience than to adorn oneself with the labors of others.
Leonardo da Vinci
If you put on more garments, the cold cannot reach you. Similarly, increase your patience and concentration and even great injuries cannot vex your mind.
Leonardo da Vinci
Why are the bones of great fishes, and oysters and corals and various other shells and sea-snails, found on the high tops of mountains that border the sea, in the same way in which they are found in the depths of the sea?
Leonardo da Vinci
The painter who draws merely by practice and by eye, without any reason, is like a mirror which copies every thing placed in front of it without being conscious of their existence.
Leonardo da Vinci
Every loss which we incur leaves behind it vexation in the memory, save the greatest loss of all, that is, death, which annihilates the memory, together with life.
Leonardo da Vinci
The imagination is to the effect as the shadow to the opaque body which causes the shadow.
Leonardo da Vinci
