Motivational Quotes
Beauty
Call for the grandest of all earthly spectacles, what is that? It is the sun going to his rest.

Best Quotes about Beauty
Nothing can be beautiful which is not true.
Ruskin, John
Beauty in art is often nothing but ugliness subdued.
Rostand, Jean
Order is the shape upon which beauty depends.
Pearl Buck
It is very necessary to have markers of beauty left in a world seemingly bent on making the most evil ugliness.
Sackville-West, Vita
Nothing's beautiful from every point of view.
Horace
The ideal beauty is a fugitive which is never found.
SeVigne, Marquise De
We ascribe beauty to that which is simple; which has no superfluous parts; which exactly answers its end; which stands related to all things; which is the mean of many extremes.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
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
The plainer the dress, the greater luster does beauty appear.
Halifax, Edward F.
Beauty is a manifestation of secret natural laws, which otherwise would have been hidden from us forever.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
Art is an invention of aesthetics, which in turn is an invention of philosophers. What we call art is a game.
Paz, Octavio
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
There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly.
Fuller, R. Buckminster
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
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
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
Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.
Anne Frank
Beauty is a good letter of introduction.
Proverb, Portuguese
The loveliest faces are to be seen by moonlight, when one sees half with the eye and half with the fancy.
Proverb, Persian
Whatever is beautiful is beautiful by necessity.
Pindar
There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness.
Blessington, Marguerite Gardiner, Countess of
I have a horror of people who speak about the beautiful. What is the beautiful? One must speak of problems in painting!
Picasso, Pablo
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
It is easy to be beautiful; it is difficult to appear so.
O'Hara, Frank
If there is one thing worse than being an ugly duckling in a house of swans, it's having the swans pretend there's no difference.
Teena Booth
Beauty is a form of genius -- is higher, indeed, than genius, as it needs no explanation. It is of the great facts in the world like sunlight, or springtime, or the reflection in dark water of that silver shell we call the moon.
Wilde, Oscar
The idea that happiness could have a share in beauty would be too much of a good thing.
Benjamin, Walter
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
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
Gibran, Kahlil
Beauty is the promise of happiness.
Stendhal, Henri B.
That which is striking and beautiful is not always good; but that which is good is always beautiful.
L'Enclos, Ninon De
In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the vibrations of beauty.
Morley, Christopher
To me, fair friend, you never can be old. For as you were when first your eye I eyed. Such seems your beauty still.
Shakespeare, William
The beautiful seems right by force of beauty, and the feeble wrong because of weakness.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
Beauty is the still birth of suffering, every woman knows that.
Prager, Emily
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
I'm not ugly, but my beauty is a total creation.
Banks, Tyra
Beauty is truth, truth beauty -- that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.
Keats, John
Being is desirable because it is identical with Beauty, and Beauty is loved because it is Being. We ourselves possess Beauty when we are true to our own being; ugliness is in going over to another order; knowing ourselves, we are beautiful; in self-ignorance, we are ugly.
Plotinus
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
Call for the grandest of all earthly spectacles, what is that? It is the sun going to his rest.
Quincey, Thomas De
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
What ever beauty may be, it has for its basis order, and for its essence unity.
Andre, Father
My heart that was rapt away by the wild cherry blossoms -- will it return to my body when they scatter?
Kotomichi
The average girl would rather have beauty than brains because she knows the average man can see much better than he can think.
The line of beauty is the line of perfect economy.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Beauty is the bait which with delight allures man to enlarge his kind.
Spenser, Edmund
The ideal has many names, and beauty is but one of them.
Maugham, W. Somerset
