More quotes by Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci
Thirst will parch your tongue and your body will waste through lack of sleep ere you can describe in words that which painting instantly sets before the eye.
Leonardo da Vinci
Details make perfection, and perfection is not a detail.
Leonardo da Vinci
Principles for the Development of a Complete Mind: Study the science of art. Study the art of science. Develop your senses- especially learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else.
Leonardo da Vinci
Drawing is based upon perspective, which is nothing else than a thorough knowledge of the function of the eye.
Leonardo da Vinci
If you do not rest on the good foundation of nature, you will labour with little honor and less profit.
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
Shadows which you see with difficulty, and whose boundaries you cannot define... these you should not represent as finished or sharply defined, for the result would be that your work would seem wooden.
Leonardo da Vinci
First study the science, and then practice the art which is born of that science.
Leonardo da Vinci
Depth and strength of a human character are defined by its moral reserves.
Leonardo da Vinci
Learn diligence before speedy execution.
Leonardo da Vinci
It is ill to praise, and worse to blame, the thing which you do not understand.
Leonardo da Vinci
Truth at last cannot be hidden. Dissimulation is of no avail. Dissimulation is to no purpose before so great a judge. Falsehood puts on a mask. Nothing is hidden under the sun.
Leonardo da Vinci
Why does the eye see a thing more clearly in dreams than the imagination when awake?
Leonardo da Vinci
If you are alone you belong entirely to yourself. If you are accompanied by even one companion you belong only half to yourself or even less in proportion to the thoughtlessness of his conduct and if you have more than one companion you will fall more deeply into the same plight.
Leonardo da Vinci
Our life is made by the death of others.
Leonardo da Vinci
Every obstacle is destroyed through rigor.
Leonardo da Vinci
Happy will they be who lend ear to the words of the dead.
Leonardo da Vinci
You don't get into trouble because of the things you don't know. It is the things you don't know you don't know that really get you into a mess.
Leonardo da Vinci
When you are alone you are all your own.
Leonardo da Vinci
