More quotes by Leonardo da Vinci
Be a mirror, absorb everything around you and still remain the same
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
And you who wish to represent by words the form of man and all the aspects of his membrification, relinquish that idea. For the more minutely you describe the more you will confine the mind of the reader, and the more you will keep him from the knowledge of the thing described. And so it is necessary to draw and to describe.
Leonardo da Vinci
I have from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men.
Leonardo da Vinci
Fire destroys all sophistry, that is deceit and maintains truth alone, that is gold.
Leonardo da Vinci
Study the science of art and the art of science.
Leonardo da Vinci
The earth is moved from its position by the weight of a tiny bird resting upon it.
Leonardo da Vinci
I am still hopeful. A falcon, Time. But the coincidence is probably accidental.
Leonardo da Vinci
The body of the earth is of the nature of a fish... because it draws water as its breath instead of air.
Leonardo da Vinci
In the days of thy youth seek to obtain that which shall compensate the losses of thy old age.
Leonardo da Vinci
Our life is made by the death of others.
Leonardo da Vinci
Do not imitate one another's style. If you do, so far as your art is concerned you will be called a grandson, rather than the son of Nature.
Leonardo da Vinci
That which has no limitations, has no form.
Leonardo da Vinci
He who cannot establish dominion over himself will have no dominion over others.
Leonardo da Vinci
The painter who draws by practise and judgment of the eye without the use of reason is like the mirror which reproduces within itself all the objects which are set opposite to it without knowledge of the same.
Leonardo da Vinci
Small rooms or dwellings discipline the mind, large ones weaken it.
Leonardo da Vinci
Art is the queen of all sciences communicating knowledge to all the generations of the world.
Leonardo da Vinci
Learning acquired in youth arrests the evil of old age.
Leonardo da Vinci
life without love, is no life at all
Leonardo da Vinci
In rivers, the water that you touch is the last of what has passed and the first of that which comes so with present time.
Leonardo da Vinci
