Motivational Quotes
Beauty
Whatever is in any way beautiful hath its source of beauty in itself, and is complete in itself; praise forms no part of it. So it is none the worse nor the better for being praised.
Best Quotes about Beauty
Even with all my wrinkles! I am beautiful!
Delaney, Bessie
The beauty seen, is partly in him who sees it.
Bovee, Christian Nevell
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
The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
Beauty is composed of an eternal, invariable element whose quantity is extremely difficult to determine, and a relative element which might be, either by turns or all at once, period, fashion, moral, passion.
Godard, Jean-Luc
Nothing can be beautiful which is not true.
Ruskin, John
You can take no credit for beauty at sixteen. But if you are beautiful at sixty, it will be your soul's own doing.
Stopes, Marie Carmichael
The ideal has many names, and beauty is but one of them.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Truth exists for the wise, beauty for the feeling heart.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.
Anne Frank
Beauty is the bait which with delight allures man to enlarge his kind.
Spenser, Edmund
Beauty depends on size as well as symmetry. No very small animal can be beautiful, for looking at it takes so small a portion of time that the impression of it will be confused. Nor can any very large one, for a whole view of it cannot be had at once, and so there will be no unity and completeness.
Aristotle
In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the vibrations of beauty.
Morley, Christopher
What ever beauty may be, it has for its basis order, and for its essence unity.
Andre, Father
What you do, the way you think, makes you beautiful.
Scott Westerfeld
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
Beauty in not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.
Gibran, Kahlil
Beauty is variable, ugliness is constant.
Horton, Doug
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
Beauty, unaccompanied by virtue, is as a flower without perfume.
Proverb, French
Let us live for the beauty of our own reality.
Robbins, Tim
Whatever is in any way beautiful hath its source of beauty in itself, and is complete in itself; praise forms no part of it. So it is none the worse nor the better for being praised.
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus
Taught from infancy that beauty is woman's scepter, the mind shapes itself to the body, and roaming round its gilt cage, only seeks to adorn its prison.
Wollstonecraft, Mary
Beauty is but a vain and doubtful good; a shining gloss that fadeth suddenly; a flower that dies when it begins to bud; a doubtful good, a gloss, a glass, a flower, lost, faded, broken, dead within an hour. -
Shakespeare, William
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
It is generally a feminine eye that first detects the moral deficiencies hidden under the dear deceit of beauty.
Eliot, George
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.
The ability to see beauty is the beginning of our moral sensibility. What we believe is beautiful we will not wantonly destroy.
Reverend Sean Parker Dennison
The average girl would rather have beauty than brains because she knows the average man can see much better than he can think.
What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful.
Sappho
There are as many kinds of beauty as there are habitual ways of seeking happiness.
Baudelaire, Charles
Beauty is ever to the lonely mind a shadow fleeting; she is never plain. She is a visitor who leaves behind the gift of grief, the souvenir of pain.
Nathan, Robert
Beauty is whatever gives joy.
Nibley, Hugh
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
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
How goodness heightens beauty!
More, Hannah
The difference between utility and utility plus beauty is the difference between telephone wires and the spider web.
Teale, Edwin Way
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
Beauty is unbearable, drives us to despair, offering us for a minute the glimpse of an eternity that we should like to stretch out over the whole of time.
Camus, Albert
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
Gibran, Kahlil
I have a horror of people who speak about the beautiful. What is the beautiful? One must speak of problems in painting!
Picasso, Pablo
Beauty will be convulsive or will not be at all.
Breton, Andre
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
The ideal beauty is a fugitive which is never found.
SeVigne, Marquise De
The essence of the beautiful is unity in variety.
Mendelssohn, Felix
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
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
The pursuit of beauty is much more dangerous nonsense than the pursuit of truth or goodness, because it affords a stronger temptation to the ego.
Frye, Northrop
The fragrance always stays in the hand that gives the rose.
Bejar, Hada
No; we have been as usual asking the wrong question. It does not matter a hoot what the mockingbird on the chimney is singing. The real and proper question is: Why is it beautiful?
Dillard, Annie
