More quotes by Leonardo da Vinci
A life well used procures a happy death.
Leonardo da Vinci
Nature never breaks her own laws.
Leonardo da Vinci
He who truly knows has no occasion to shout.
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
Just as iron rusts from disuse... even so does inaction spoil the intellect.
Leonardo da Vinci
O Time with your teethy years! You swallow up all things little by little in a slow-motion, wrinkling process of dying.
Leonardo da Vinci
When you draw a nude, sketch the whole figure and nicely fit the members to it and to each other. Even though you may only finish one portion of the drawing, just make certain that all the parts hang together, so that the study will be useful to you in the future.
Leonardo da Vinci
In an atmosphere of uniform density the most distant things seen through it, such as the mountains, in consequence of the great quantity of atmosphere which is between your eye and them, will appear blue. Therefore you should make the building... wall which is more distant less defined and bluer... five times as far away, make five times as blue.
Leonardo da Vinci
The good painter must paint two things: a person and the essence of his soul.
Leonardo da Vinci
A long life is a life well spent.
Leonardo da Vinci
Although nature commences with reason and ends in experience it is necessary for us to do the opposite, that is to commence with experience and from this to proceed to investigate the reason.
Leonardo da Vinci
My body is not a tomb for animals.
Leonardo da Vinci
Experiment is the sole interpreter of the artifices of Nature.
Leonardo da Vinci
The most beautiful words of love are told in silence for a look.
Leonardo da Vinci
When you are alone you are all your own.
Leonardo da Vinci
To such an extent does nature delight and abound in variety that among her trees there is not one plant to be found which is exactly like another and not only among the plants, but among the boughs, the leaves and the fruits, you will not find one which is exactly similar to another.
Leonardo da Vinci
The instant the atmosphere is illuminated it will be filled with an infinite number of images which are produced by the various bodies and colours assembled in it. And the eye is the target, a lodestone, of these images.
Leonardo da Vinci
Patience serves as a protection against wrongs as clothes do against cold.
Leonardo da Vinci
The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding.
Leonardo da Vinci
The days are long enough for those who use them.
Leonardo da Vinci
