That man is of supreme folly who always wants for fear of wanting; and his life flies away while he is still hoping to enjoy the good things which he… - Leonardo da Vinci

The Caladrius is a bird of which it is related that, when it is carried into the presence of a sick person, if the sick man is going to die, the bird turns away its head and never looks at him; but if the sick man is to be saved the bird never loses sight of him but is the cause of curing him of all his sickness. Like unto this is the love of virtue. It never looks at any vile or base thing, but rather clings always to pure and virtuous things and takes up its abode in a noble heart; as the birds do in green woods on flowery branches. And this Love shows itself more in adversity than in prosperity; as light does, which shines most where the place is darkest.

A beautiful body perishes, but a work of art dies not.” ~ Leonardo da Vinci
