"You don't get into trouble because of..." - Quote by Leonardo Da Vinci

“Depth and strength of a human character are defined by its moral reserves.”

“Inequality is the cause of all local movements.”

“Every action needs to be prompted by a motive.”

“But that we shall be better and braver and less helpless if we think that we ought to enquire, than we should have been if we indulged in the idle fancy that there was no knowing and no use in seeking to know what we do not know; - that is a theme upon which I am ready to fight, in word and deed, to the utmost of my power.”

“Theory must mediate between all previous truths and certain new experiences”

“Nothing is more powerful for your future than being a gatherer of good ideas and information. That's called doing your homework.”

“What man does not understand, he fears; and what he fears, he tends to destroy.”

“Well I am certainly wiser than this man. It is only too likely that neither of us has any knowledge to boast of; but he thinks that he knows something which he does not know, whereas I am quite conscious of my ignorance. At any rate it seems that I am wiser than he is to this small extent, that I do not think that I know what I do not know.”

“Until recently each generation found it more expedient to plead guilty to the charge of being young and ignorant, easier to take the punishment meted out by the older generation (which had itself confessed to the same crime short years before). The command to grow up at once was more bearable than the faceless horror of wavering purpose, which was youth.”
