More quotes by Leonardo da Vinci
One's thoughts turn towards Hope.
Leonardo da Vinci
If you call painting dumb poetry, the painter may call poetry blind painting.
Leonardo da Vinci
Poetry is superior to painting in the presentation of words, and painting is superior to poetry in the presentation of facts. For this reason I judge painting to be superior to poetry.
Leonardo da Vinci
Things that are separate shall be united and acquire such virtue that they will restore to man his lost memory.
Leonardo da Vinci
We ought not to desire the impossible.
Leonardo da Vinci
Those who condemn the supreme certainty of mathematics feed on confusion, and can never silence the contradictions of the sophistical sciences which lead to eternal quackery.
Leonardo da Vinci
Inequality is the cause of all local movements.
Leonardo da Vinci
Savage is he who saves himself.
Leonardo da Vinci
Depth and strength of a human character are defined by its moral reserves.
Leonardo da Vinci
Men of genius sometimes accomplish most when they work least, for they are thinking out inventions.
Leonardo da Vinci
It is useful to constantly observe, note, and consider.
Leonardo da Vinci
Experience does not err. Only your judgments err by expecting from her what is not in her power.
Leonardo da Vinci
The mind that engages in subjects of too great variety becomes confused and weakened.
Leonardo da Vinci
The organ of perception acts more readily than judgment.
Leonardo da Vinci
Details make perfection, and perfection is not a detail.
Leonardo da Vinci
A single and distinct luminous body causes stronger relief in the objects than a diffused light as may be seen by comparing one side of a landscape illuminated by the sun, and one overshadowed by clouds, and illuminated only by the diffused light of the atmosphere.
Leonardo da Vinci
The part always has a tendency to reunite with its whole in order to escape from its imperfection.
Leonardo da Vinci
Every now and then go away, have a little relaxation, for when you come back to your work your judgment will be surer. Go some distance away because then the work appears smaller and more of it can be taken in at a glance and a lack of harmony and proportion is more readily seen.
Leonardo da Vinci
O admirable necessity! O powerful action! What mind can penetrate your nature? What language can express this marvel? None, to be sure. This is where human discourse turns toward the contemplation of the divine.
Leonardo da Vinci
If a man has a tent made of linen of which the apertures have all been stopped up, and be it twelve bracchia across (over twenty-five feet) and twelve in depth, he will be able to throw himself down from any height without sustaining injury. [His concept of the parachute.]
Leonardo da Vinci
