Reading Da Vinci's Notebooks. Hugely disappointed. This was supposed to be one of the greatest geniuses of all time.... but his reflections are rather trite, boring, and pedestrian.
"Of the beaver one reads that when it is pursued, knowing this to be on account of the virtue of its testicles for medicinal uses and not being able to escape, it stops; and in order to be at peace with its pursuers bites off its testicles with its sharp teeth and leaves them to its enemies."
Wonderful lesson Leo, thanks. NEXT.
