More quotes by Leonardo da Vinci
I have been impressed with the urgency of doing.
Leonardo da Vinci
Just as iron which is not used grows rusty, and water putrefies and freezes in the cold, so the mind of which no use is made is spoilt.
Leonardo da Vinci
Even the richest soil, if left uncultivated will produce the rankest weeds.
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
Good writing comes from good talent.
Leonardo da Vinci
Nature alone is the master of true genius.
Leonardo da Vinci
Whatever you do in life, if you want to be creative and intelligent, and develop your brain, you must do everything with the awareness that everything, in some way, connects to everything else.
Leonardo da Vinci
A diamond is just a lump of coal that stuck to its job.
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
A good memory, which nature has endowed us with, causes things long past to seem present.
Leonardo da Vinci
O Time! consumer of all things O envious age! thou dost destroy all things and devour all things with the relentless teeth of years, little by little in a slow death. Helen, when she looked in her mirror, seeing the withered wrinkles made in her face by old age, wept and wondered why she had twice been carried away.
Leonardo da Vinci
The eye which turns from a white object in the light of the sun and goes into a less fully lighted place will see everything as dark.
Leonardo da Vinci
Everything comes from everything, and everything is made out of everything, and everything returns into everything.
Leonardo da Vinci
To any white body receiving the light from the sun, or the air, the shadows will be of a bluish cast.
Leonardo da Vinci
I have always felt it is my destiny to build a machine that would allow man to fly.
Leonardo da Vinci
In time and with water, everything changes.
Leonardo da Vinci
Man has much power of discourse which for the most part is vain and false animals have but little, but it is useful and true, and a small truth is better than a great lie.
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
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
Some promises and time disappoint us
Leonardo da Vinci
