"Greatest gifts are seen raining down from heavenly influences into human bodies many times naturally; and above natural sometimes overflowingly coupling in one body beauty, grace, and virtue, in a manner that wherever that fellow turns, each of his actions is so divine, that leaving behind all other men, manifestly makes itself known for a thing (as it is) bestowed by God, and not acquired by human art. This men saw in Leonardo da Vinci."
~Giorgio Vasari
