Michelangelo
Nature did all things well
Michelangelo

Michelangelo
Gazing on beautiful things acts on my soul.
Michelangelo
I live in sin, to kill myself I live no longer my life my own, but sin's my good is given to me by heaven, my evil by myself, by my free will, of which I am deprived.
Michelangelo
