More quotes by Leonardo da Vinci
Just as iron rusts from disuse, and stagnant water putrefies, or when cold turns to ice, so our intellect wastes unless it is kept in use.
Leonardo da Vinci
The light and heat of the universe comes from the sun, and its cold and darkness from the withdrawal of the sun.
Leonardo da Vinci
Why does the eye see a thing more clearly in dreams than the imagination when awake?
Leonardo da Vinci
When you put your hand in a flowing stream, you touch the last that has gone before and the first of what is still to come.
Leonardo da Vinci
He who wishes to see how the soul inhabits the body should look to see how that body uses its daily surroundings. If the dwelling is dirty and neglected, the body will be kept by its soul in the same condition, dirty and neglected.
Leonardo da Vinci
life without love, is no life at all
Leonardo da Vinci
The eye - which sees all objects reversed - retains the images for some time.
Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci
Tears come from the heart and not from the brain
Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci
Time stays long enough for anyone who will use it.
Leonardo da Vinci
Learning is the only thing the mind never exhausts, never fears, and never regrets.
Leonardo da Vinci
Strive to preserve your health and in this you will better succeed in proportion as you keep clear of the physicians, for their drugs are a kind of alchemy concerning which there are no fewer books than there are medicines.
Leonardo da Vinci
I am not to blame for putting forward, in the course of my work on science, any general rule derived from a previous conclusion.
Leonardo da Vinci
I love those who can smile in trouble.
Leonardo da Vinci
Avoid studies of which the result dies with the worker.
Leonardo da Vinci
Vows begin when hope dies.
Leonardo da Vinci
A man was desired to rise from bed because the sun was already up. He replied: If I had as far to go and as much to do as he has, I should be up by now but having but a little way to go, I shall not get up yet.
Leonardo da Vinci
The young man should first learn perspective, then the proportions of objects. Next, copy work after the hand of a good master, to gain the habit of drawing parts of the body well and then to work from nature, to confirm the lessons learned.
Leonardo da Vinci
The knowledge of all things is possible
Leonardo da Vinci
