More quotes by Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci
Man and the animals are merely a passage and channel for food, a tomb for other animals, a haven for the dead, giving life by the death of others, a coffer full of corruption.
Leonardo da Vinci
The function of muscle is to pull and not to push, except in the case of the genitals and the tongue.
Leonardo da Vinci
If you are representing a white body let it be surrounded by ample space, because as white has no colour of its own, it is tinged and altered in some degree by the colour of the objects surrounding it
Leonardo da Vinci
Let no man who is not a Mathematician read the elements of my work.
Leonardo da Vinci
The Medici made me and the Medici destroyed me.
Leonardo da Vinci
Nothing is hidden under the sun.
Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci
Beauty perishes in life, but is immortal in art.
Leonardo da Vinci
The variety of colour in objects cannot be discerned at a great distance, excepting in those parts which are directly lighted up by the solar rays.
Leonardo da Vinci
Learning acquired in youth arrests the evil of old age and if you understand that old age has wisdom for its food, you will so conduct yourself in youth that your old age will not lack for nourishment.
Leonardo da Vinci
You can have no dominion greater or less than that over yourself.
Leonardo da Vinci
The discovery of a good wine is increasingly better for mankind than the discovery of a new star.
Leonardo da Vinci
Patience serves as a protection against wrongs as clothes do against cold.
Leonardo da Vinci
We might say that the earth has the spirit of growth that its flesh is the soil.
Leonardo da Vinci
Truth was the only daughter of Time.
Leonardo da Vinci
Therefore, O students, study mathematics and do not build without foundations.
Leonardo da Vinci
Men wrongly lament the flight of time, blaming it for being too swift they do not perceive that its passage is sufficiently long, but a good memory, which nature has given to us, causes things long past to seem present.
Leonardo da Vinci
Nature alone is the master of true genius.
Leonardo da Vinci
