“Nothing is that which fills no space.”
Leonardo Da Vinci
(1452–1519) Italian Renaissance polymath
The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci (1883), II Linear Perspective
Context: Nothing is that which fills no space. If one single point placed in a circle may be the starting point of an infinite number of lines, and the termination of an infinite number of lines, there must be an infinite number of points separable from this point, and these when reunited become one again; whence it follows that the part may be equal to the whole.
“The point, being indivisible, occupies no space. That which occupies no space is nothing.”
Leonardo Da Vinci
(1452–1519) Italian Renaissance polymath
The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci (1883), II Linear Perspective
Context: The point, being indivisible, occupies no space. That which occupies no space is nothing. The limiting surface of one thing is the beginning of another.
