Leonardo Da Vinci

More about Leonardo……(a great thinker outside the box)!

“There are three classes of people: those who see.
Those who see when they are shown.
Those who do not see.”
~ Leonardo da Vinci ~

Leonardo was a vegetarian and because of his vegetarianism, Leonardo had a habit of purchasing caged birds and then releasing them into the wild.
Leonardo was a technological genius. He drew designs for a helicoptercalculatortanksolar power and a double hull.  Although his designs, except for a few, were not constructed during his lifetime, some of them, like the automated bobbin winder and a machine for testing the tensile strength of wire, were huge successes.
Leonardo completed over 13,000 pages of notes and drawings, only a few of these pages remain.
