Muovesi l’amante per la cos’amata come il senso e
la sensibile e con seco s’unisce e fassi una cosa
medesima.
L’opera è la prima cosa che nasce dell’unione. Se
la cosa amata è vile, l’amante si fa vile.
Quando la cosa unita è conveniente al suo unitore,
li seguita dilettazione e piacere e sadisfazione.
Quando l’amante è giunto all’amato, lì si riposa.
Quando il peso è posato, lì si riposa.
La cosa cognusciuta col nostro intelletto.

Ho modi de ponti leggerissimi et forti,
et atti a portare facilissimamente, et
cum quelli seguire, & alcuna volta
fuggire li inimici, et altri securi et
inoffensivi da foco et battaglia, facili e
commodi da levare et ponere. Et modi
de arder et disfare quelli de l'inimico.
So in la obsidione de una terra toglier
via l'acqua de' fossi, et fare infiniti
ponti, ghatti et scale et altri instrumenti
pertinenti ad dicta expedizione.
In tempo di pace credo satisfare
benissimo a paragone de omni altro in
architectura, in composizione di edificii
publici et privati, et in conducer acqua
da uno loco ad uno altro.
Item, conducerò in scultura di
marmore, di bronzo et di terra, similiter
in pictura, ciò che si possa fare ad
paragone de omni altro, et sia chi vole.

Is this a moral imperative?
Everywhere you look, there’s devices for free that
have everything you need to make anything do
anything.
...the world is full of capacious, capable,
disposable junk and it cries out to be used again.
