Motivational Quotes
Beauty
There are various orders of beauty, causing men to make fools of themselves in various styles... but there is one order of beauty which seems made to turn the heads not only of men, but of all intelligent mammals, even of women. It is a beauty like that of kittens, or very small downy ducks making gentle rippling noises with their soft bills, or babies just beginning to toddle and to engage in conscious mischief --a beauty with which you can never be angry, but that you feel ready to crush for inability to comprehend the state of mind into which it throws you.

Best Quotes about Beauty
Beauty is in the heart of the beholder.
Bernstein, Al
Even with all my wrinkles! I am beautiful!
Delaney, Bessie
Art is an invention of aesthetics, which in turn is an invention of philosophers. What we call art is a game.
Paz, Octavio
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
By cultivating the beautiful we scatter the seeds of heavenly flowers, as by doing good we cultivate those that belong to humanity.
Howard, Vernon
I have learnt to love you late, Beauty at once so ancient and so new!
Augustine, St.
Let there be nothing within thee that is not very beautiful and very gentle, and there will be nothing without thee that is not beautiful and softened by the spell of thy presence.
Allen, James
A day spent without the sight or sound of beauty, the contemplation of mystery, or the search of truth or perfection is a poverty-stricken day; and a succession of such days is fatal to human life.
Mumford, Lewis
Beauty is a good letter of introduction.
Proverb, Portuguese
Beauty is our weapon against nature; by it we make objects, giving them limit, symmetry, proportion. Beauty halts and freezes the melting flux of nature.
Paglia, Camille
There have been many definitions of beauty in art. What is it? Beauty is what the untrained eyes consider abominable.
Goncourt, Edmond and Jules De
Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves eyes within thy locks: thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead. [Song Of Solomon 4:1]
Bible
There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly.
Fuller, R. Buckminster
The flowers anew, returning seasons bring! But beauty faded has no second spring.
Philips, Ambrose
Beauty is the still birth of suffering, every woman knows that.
Prager, Emily
Beauty is a manifestation of secret natural laws, which otherwise would have been hidden from us forever.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Nothing is beautiful, only man: on this piece of naivete rests all aesthetics, it is the first truth of aesthetics. Let us immediately add its second: nothing is ugly but degenerate man -- the domain of aesthetic judgment is therewith defined.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful.
Sappho
There are various orders of beauty, causing men to make fools of themselves in various styles... but there is one order of beauty which seems made to turn the heads not only of men, but of all intelligent mammals, even of women. It is a beauty like that of kittens, or very small downy ducks making gentle rippling noises with their soft bills, or babies just beginning to toddle and to engage in conscious mischief --a beauty with which you can never be angry, but that you feel ready to crush for inability to comprehend the state of mind into which it throws you.
Eliot, George
Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies, for instance.
Ruskin, John
The line of beauty is the line of perfect economy.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
To emphasize only the beautiful seems to me to be like a mathematical system that only concerns itself with positive numbers.
Klee, Paul
That which is striking and beautiful is not always good; but that which is good is always beautiful.
L'Enclos, Ninon De
Personal beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of reference.
Aristotle
Few girls are as well shaped as a good horse.
Morley, Christopher
I spent a lot of time with a crown on my head. [On her beauty pageant days]
Berry, Halle
O, thou art fairer than the evening air clad in the beauty of a thousand stars.
Marlowe, Christopher
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
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
The ideal has many names, and beauty is but one of them.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Whatever is beautiful is beautiful by necessity.
Pindar
The average girl would rather have beauty than brains because she knows the average man can see much better than he can think.
The difference between utility and utility plus beauty is the difference between telephone wires and the spider web.
Teale, Edwin Way
The idea that happiness could have a share in beauty would be too much of a good thing.
Benjamin, Walter
My heart that was rapt away by the wild cherry blossoms -- will it return to my body when they scatter?
Kotomichi
Every trait of beauty may be referred to some virtue, as to innocence, candor, generosity, modesty, or heroism. St. Pierre To cultivate the sense of the beautiful, is one of the most effectual ways of cultivating an appreciation of the divine goodness.
Bovee, Christian Nevell
It is easy to be beautiful; it is difficult to appear so.
O'Hara, Frank
Sunsets are so beautiful that they almost seem as if we were looking through the gates of Heaven.
Lubbock, Sir John
Where beauty is worshipped for beauty's sake as a goddess, independent of and superior to morality and philosophy, the most horrible putrefaction is apt to set in. The lives of the aesthetes are the far from edifying commentary on the religion of beauty.
Huxley, Aldous
Let the beauty we love be what we do.
Rumi, Jalal-Uddin
Nothing's beautiful from every point of view.
Horace
The ideal beauty is a fugitive which is never found.
SeVigne, Marquise De
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
I have found that all ugly things are made by those who strive to make something beautiful, and that all beautiful things are made by those who strive to make something useful.
Wilde, Oscar
There are as many kinds of beauty as there are habitual ways of seeking happiness.
Baudelaire, Charles
Beauty is truth, truth beauty -- that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.
Keats, John
Beauty rests on necessities.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Beauty is worse than wine, it intoxicates both the holder and beholder.
Immermann
People often say that'beauty is in the eye of the beholder,'and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder. This empowers us to find beauty in places where others have not dared to look, including inside ourselves.
Salma Hayek
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
