Of the line (47-48).

 

Da Vinci Notes #47 - Opportunity

 

DEFINITION OF THE NATURE OF THE LINE.

 

The line has in itself neither matter nor substance and may rather

be called an imaginary idea than a real object; and this being its

nature it occupies no space. Therefore an infinite number of lines

may be conceived of as intersecting each other at a point, which has

no dimensions and is only of the thickness (if thickness it may be

called) of one single line.

 

HOW WE MAY CONCLUDE THAT A SUPERFICIES TERMINATES IN A POINT?

 

An angular surface is reduced to a point where it terminates in an

angle. Or, if the sides of that angle are produced in a straight

line, then--beyond that angle--another surface is generated,

smaller, or equal to, or larger than the first.

 

 

Keith's Ideas:

1. Infinite number of lines of development can intersect each others.

2. So, you can change your direction of development at any point of

    your life.

3. As there is an infinite number of lines intersecting, there are infinite

    number of new directions for a change. You can't see all these new

    directions only because they have no dimensions.

4. Stand away from them, and draw them out. Then you can see them.

5. When any 2 lines meet, you can go beyond it and become smallerm

    same or larger. The meeting point is called an "Opportunity".

    Opportuunity happens when something intersect your normal life!

    They are not accidents, they are opportunities!
