Leonardo da Vinci
Science is the captain, and practice the soldiers.
Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci
I am never weary of being useful... In serving others I cannot do enough. No labor is sufficient to tire me.
Leonardo da Vinci
Learning acquired in youth arrests the evil of old age.
Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci
There is no result in nature without a cause understand the cause and you will have no need of the experiment.
Leonardo da Vinci
