Beauty

Beauty can't amuse you, but brainwork -- reading, writing, thinking--can.
- Brown, Helen Gurley
Beauty Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Beauty

1.
Rarely do great beauty and great virtue dwell together.
Petrarch

2.
The esthete stands in the same relation to beauty as the pornographer stands to love, and the politician stands to life.
Kraus, Karl

3.
There are no better cosmetics than a severe temperance and purity, modesty and humility, a gracious temper and calmness of spirit; and there is no true beauty without the signatures of these graces in the very countenance.
Ray, John

4.
Nothing can be beautiful which is not true.
Ruskin, John

5.
Eye contact is the best accessory.
Takayuki Ikkaku, Arisa Hosaka and Toshihiro Kawabata

6.
Beauty is the mark God sets on virtue. Every natural action is graceful; every heroic act is also decent, and causes the place and the bystanders to shine.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

7.
Beauty itself is but the sensible image of the infinite.
Bancroft, George

8.
The real sin against life is to abuse and destroy beauty, even one's own --even more, one's own, for that has been put in our care and we are responsible for its well-being.
Porter, Katherine Anne

9.
I spent a lot of time with a crown on my head. [On her beauty pageant days]
Berry, Halle

10.
The line of beauty is the line of perfect economy.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

11.
My heart that was rapt away by the wild cherry blossoms -- will it return to my body when they scatter?
Kotomichi

12.
Beauty is the bait which with delight allures man to enlarge his kind.
Spenser, Edmund

13.
How goodness heightens beauty!
More, Hannah

14.
Let us live for the beauty of our own reality.
Robbins, Tim

15.
To emphasize only the beautiful seems to me to be like a mathematical system that only concerns itself with positive numbers.
Klee, Paul

16.
Beauty can't amuse you, but brainwork -- reading, writing, thinking--can.
Brown, Helen Gurley

17.
Beauty is a short-lived tyranny.
Socrates

18.
Walk on a rainbow trail; walk on a trail of song, and all about you will be beauty. There is a way out of every dark mist, over a rainbow trail.
Navajo, Edward A.

19.
Thankfully, beauty is easier to remove than apply, and a swipe of demaquillage in the right direction and you are you once again.
Margaret Cho

20.
Beauty for some provides escape, who gain a happiness in eyeing the gorgeous buttocks of the ape or Autumn sunsets exquisitely dying.
Huxley, Aldous

21.
Order is the shape upon which beauty depends.
Pearl Buck

22.
The ideal has many names, and beauty is but one of them.
Maugham, W. Somerset

23.
What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful.
Sappho

24.
The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason.
John Cage

25.
Beauty ought to look a little surprised: it is the emotion that best suits her face. The beauty who does not look surprised, who accepts her position as her due -- she reminds us too much of a prima donna.
Forster, Edward M.

26.
What ever beauty may be, it has for its basis order, and for its essence unity.
Andre, Father

27.
Beauty is as relative as light and dark. Thus, there exists no beautiful woman, none at all, because you are never certain that a still far more beautiful woman will not appear and completely shame the supposed beauty of the first.
Klee, Paul

28.
The beauty myth moves for men as a mirage; its power lies in its ever-receding nature. When the gap is closed, the lover embraces only his own disillusion.
Wolf, Naomi

29.
Beauty, unaccompanied by virtue, is as a flower without perfume.
Proverb, French

30.
Beauty is whatever gives joy.
Nibley, Hugh

31.
At the heart of all beauty lies something inhuman, and these hills, the softness of the sky, the outline of these trees at this very minute lose the illusory meaning with which we had clothed them, henceforth more remote than a lost paradise... that denseness and that strangeness of the world is absurd.
Camus, Albert

32.
The beauty that addresses itself to the eyes is only the spell of the moment; the eye of the body is not always that of the soul.
Sand, George

33.
Remember if you marry for beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which perchance, will neither last nor please thee one year: and when thou hast it, it will be to thee of no price at all.
Raleigh, Sir Walter

34.
The difference between utility and utility plus beauty is the difference between telephone wires and the spider web.
Teale, Edwin Way

35.
It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.
Tolstoy, Count Leo

36.
Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.
Henry Miller

37.
We know only that we are living in these bodies and have a vague idea, because we have heard it, and because our faith tells us so, that we possess souls. As to what good qualities there may be in our souls, or who dwells within them, or how precious they are, those are things which seldom consider and so we trouble little about carefully preserving the soul's beauty.
Teresa of Avila, St.

38.
By cultivating the beautiful we scatter the seeds of heavenly flowers, as by doing good we cultivate those that belong to humanity.
Howard, Vernon

39.
Nothing's beautiful from every point of view.
Horace

40.
If you have never seen beauty in a moment of suffering, you have never seen beauty at all. If you have never seen joy in a beautiful face, you have never seen joy at all.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

41.
All forms of beauty, like all possible phenomena, contain an element of the eternal and an element of the transitory -- of the absolute and of the particular. Absolute and eternal beauty does not exist, or rather it is only an abstraction creamed from the general surface of different beauties. The particular element in each manifestation comes from the emotions: and just as we have our own particular emotions, so we have our own beauty.
Baudelaire, Charles

42.
I'm tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That's deep enough. What do you want --an adorable pancreas?
Kerr, Jean

43.
The loveliest faces are to be seen by moonlight, when one sees half with the eye and half with the fancy.
Proverb, Persian

44.
Beauty is a harmonious relation between something in our nature and the quality of the object which delights us.
Pascal, Blaise

45.
Being pretty on the inside means you don't hit your brother and you eat all your peas -- that's what my grandma taught me.
Heller, Elizabeth

46.
Beauty and seduction is nature's tool for survival, because we will protect what we love.
Louie Schwartzberg

47.
In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the vibrations of beauty.
Morley, Christopher

48.
There's something almost perfect in the ugly duckling syndrome. Because a sensitivity is tattooed on a part of you no one else can see but can somehow guess is there.
Stephanie Klein

49.
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
Gibran, Kahlil

50.
My work always tried to unite the true with the beautiful; but when I had to choose one or the other, I usually chose the beautiful.
Wey, Hermann
