"As a well-spent day brings happy sleep,..." - Quote by Leonardo Da Vinci

“The lover is drawn by the thing loved, as the sense is by that which it perceives.”

“Fire destroys falsehood, that is sophistry, and restores truth, driving out darkness.”

“Be a mirror, absorb everything around you and still remain the same”

“It is perfectly true, as philosophers say, that life must be understood backwards. But they forget the other proposition, that it must be lived forwards.”

“Life is so short that it is not wise to take roundabout ways, nor can we spend much time in waiting.... We have not got half-way to dawn yet.”

“Consider when thou art much vexed or grieved, that man's life is only a moment, and after a short time we are all laid out dead.”

“Man, like a light in the night, is kindled and put out.”

“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”

“The very dogs were all asleep, and the flies, drunk with moist sugar in the grocer's shop, forgot their wings and briskness, and baked to death in dusty corners of the window.”
