(Leonardo Da Vinci, Sketch of a Square Church with Central Dome and Minaret)
"The more extensive your acquaintance is with the works of those who have excelled, the more extensive will be your powers of
invention. . . . -- and what may appear still more like a paradox,
the more original will be your conceptions."
-Sir Joshua Reynolds,
quoted in The Practice of Writing
