He who cannot establish dominion over himself will have no dominion over others.
Leonardo da Vinci
That which has no limitations, has no form.
Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci
Good culture is born of a good disposition and since the cause is more to be praised than the effect, I will rather praise a good disposition without culture, than good culture without the disposition.
Leonardo da Vinci
The most beautiful words of love are told in silence for a look.
Leonardo da Vinci
Tears come from the heart and not from the brain
Leonardo da Vinci
He who possesses most must be most afraid of loss.
