Leonardo da Vinci
The vine that has grown old on an old tree falls with the ruin of that tree and through that bad companionship must perish with it. -Leonardo da Vinci, painter, engineer, musician, and scientist (1452-1519)
An interesting warning. Ironically, it is sometimes the case, perhaps often, that the vine growing profusely on the tree is ultimately the cause of its ruin.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
Convictions are more dangerous enemies of truth than lies. -Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, philosopher (1844-1900)
As usual, Nietzsche turns reality inside out. The conviction of good men are generally not enemies of truth. My own conviction, however, is that Nietzsche’s strongest convictions are indeed dangerous.
