Leonardo 3

From the notebook of Leonardo:
If you say that poetry is more everlasting than painting, to this I would reply that the works of a smith are more enduring still, since time preserves them longer than either your words or paintings.

What would you answer Leonardo to his statement?
Write for ten minutes.

From the notebook of Leonardo:
Moderation curbs all the vices. The ermine would rather die than soil itself.

Leonardo 1

From the notebook of Leonardo:
I wandered some distance among gloomy, overhanging rocks, coming to the entrance of a large cave. I stood in front of it for some time, kneeling and shading my eyes, stupefied and amazed, for I did not have prior knowlede of its existence. Suddenly, two things arose in me - fear and desire. Fear of the menacing darkness of the cave, and desire to see if there was any marvelous thing inside it.


What do you think about this observation? Write for five minutes, without stopping.
