Eye for detail – Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa. Photograph:

Among the great things which
are found among us, the existence of Nothing is the greatest
Every part is disposed to
unite with the whole, that it may thereby escape from its own incompleteness.
The noblest pleasure is the
joy of understanding.
Where there is shouting,
there is no true knowledge.
The earth is moved from its
position by the weight of a tiny bird resting upon it.
The smallest feline is a
masterpiece.
Simplicity is the ultimate
sophistication.
Anyone who conducts an argument
by appealing to authority is not using his intelligence; he is just using his
memory.
Iron rusts from disuse;
water loses its purity from stagnation... even so does inaction sap the vigor
of the mind.
Everything comes from
everything, and everything is made out of everything, and everything returns
into everything...
There are three classes of
people: those who see, those who see when they are shown, those who do not see.
This beautiful writing ... I like
