The Lessons of History - Will & Ariel Durant (book) (30mins)
- Chapter 4: Race and History
- Aryan race thought to be most influential, but mingling of races and intermarriage has produced more creatives and societies
- Have to take into account oriental influences.
- "The south creates the civilizations, the North conquers them, ruins them, borrows from them, spreads them: this is the summary of history."
- makes me think of Genghis Khan and his influence and spread of culture. He didn't enforce new ways but continues with them but had rule over them.

Leonardo's Notebooks - Leonardo Davinci (book) (10mins)
- when you have well learnt perspective and have by heart the parts and forms of objects, you must go about, and constantly, as you go, observe, note, and consider the circumstances and behavior of men
- And take note of them with slight strokes in a little book that you should always carry with you. And it should be tinted paper, that it may not be rubbed out, but change the old (when full) for a new one; since these things should not be rubbed out but preserved with great care; for the forms, and positions of objects are so infinite that the memory is incapable of retaining them, wherefore keep these (sketches) as your guides and masters.
