Flights of the Mind


Dan Brown's DaVinci Code is one thing.... but Charles Nicholl's "Leonardo da Vinci - Flights of the Mind" purports to demystify the 15th century genius. This is the book I'm reading at the moment and save the fact that the author is going into horrifyingly boring details in parts I hope that the story of Da Vinci's life will bring me some inspiration.

Leonardo dreamed of and studied ways to achieve manned flight..

A quote by Leonardo:

When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.

i understand the Leonardo quote but not as in a flight pattern.... LOL

i think of it more on 2 opposite sides of reality...

When once you have tasted TRUE Imagination ...

and

When once you have tasted TRUE Romance ...


of course with a heck of an imagination U can create your own romance... but that's boring when what you are really needing is a REAL romance to help fuel your imagination ....
