- Emerson, Ralph Waldo

Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

3.
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

14.
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.

Teresa of Avila, St.

Pindar

O, thou art fairer than the evening air clad in the beauty of a thousand stars.
Marlowe, Christopher

24.
Beauty and seduction is nature's tool for survival, because we will protect what we love.
Louie Schwartzberg

25.
I'm tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That's deep enough. What do you want, an adorable pancreas?
Jean Kerr

Beauty in not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.
Gibran, Kahlil

A poor beauty finds more lovers than husbands.
Proverb, English

Stopes, Marie Carmichael

Wilde, Oscar

30.
Beauty is only skin deep, but it's a valuable asset if you're poor or haven't any sense.
Hubbard, Kin

Withdraw into yourself and look. And if you do not fine yourself beautiful yet, act as does the creator of a statue that is to be made beautiful: he cuts away here, he smoothes there, he makes this line lighter, this other purer, until a lovely face has grown his work. So do you also: cut away all that is excessive, straighten all that is crooked, bring light to all that is overcast, labor to make all one glow or beauty and never cease chiseling your statue, until there shall shine out on you from it the godlike splendor of virtue, until you see the perfect goodness surely established in the stainless shrine
Plotinus

Breton, Andre
