Quotes

You will never have a greater or lesser dominion than that over yourself. The height of a man’s success is gauged by his self-mastery: the depth of failure by his self-abandonment. He who cannot establish dominion over himself will have no dominion over others. 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
And you who wish to represent by words the form of man and all the aspects of his membrification, relinquish that idea. For the more minutely you describe the more you will confine the mind of the reader, and the more you will keep him from the knowledge of the thing described. And so it is necessary to draw and to describe. Leonardo da Vinci
Leonardo da Vinci quote: "Truly man is the king of beasts, for his brutality exceeds..."
Truly man is the king of beasts, for his brutality exceeds them. We live by the death of others. We are burial places. Leonardo da Vinci
