Image
Savage is he who saves himself.
Leonardo da Vinci

Human subtlety will never devise an invention more beautiful, more simple or more direct than does nature because in her inventions nothing is lacking, and nothing is superfluous.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
Realize that everything connects to everything else.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
He who draws... ought to take his position so that the eye of the figure he is drawing is on a level with his own... because, generally, figures or people whom you meet in the streets all have their eyes at the same level as yours, and if you make them higher or lower you will find that your portrait will not resemble them.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
A day will come in which men will look upon an animal's murder the same way they look today upon a man's murder.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
Fire is to represent truth because it destroys all sophistry and lies and the mask is for lying and falsehood which conceal truth.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
Blinding ignorance does mislead us. O! Wretched mortals, open your eyes!
Leonardo da Vinci
