Motivational Quotes
Beauty
What is most beautiful in virile men is sometimes feminine; what is most beautiful in feminine women is something masculine.

Best Quotes about Beauty
I have a horror of people who speak about the beautiful. What is the beautiful? One must speak of problems in painting!
Picasso, Pablo
There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness.
Blessington, Marguerite Gardiner, Countess of
The ideal has many names, and beauty is but one of them.
Maugham, W. Somerset
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.
Beauty is in the heart of the beholder.
Bernstein, Al
There are as many kinds of beauty as there are habitual ways of seeking happiness.
Baudelaire, Charles
It is easy to be beautiful; it is difficult to appear so.
O'Hara, Frank
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
The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.
Hazrat Inayat Khan
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
By cultivating the beautiful we scatter the seeds of heavenly flowers, as by doing good we cultivate those that belong to humanity.
Howard, Vernon
Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.
Anne Frank
Just because you are blind, and unable to see my beauty doesn't mean it does not exist.
Margaret Cho
Beauty is a harmonious relation between something in our nature and the quality of the object which delights us.
Pascal, Blaise
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?
Jean Kerr
Beauty in not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.
Gibran, Kahlil
I spent a lot of time with a crown on my head. [On her beauty pageant days]
Berry, Halle
Personal beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of reference.
Aristotle
It is generally a feminine eye that first detects the moral deficiencies hidden under the dear deceit of beauty.
Eliot, George
One evening I sat Beauty on my knees --And I found her bitter --And I reviled her.
Rimbaud, Arthur
Beauty is desired in order that it may be befouled; not for its own sake, but for the joy brought by the certainty of profaning it.
Bataille, Georges
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
It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.
Tolstoy, Count Leo
Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies, for instance.
Ruskin, John
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
The difference between utility and utility plus beauty is the difference between telephone wires and the spider web.
Teale, Edwin Way
Art is an invention of aesthetics, which in turn is an invention of philosophers. What we call art is a game.
Paz, Octavio
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
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
Whatever is beautiful is beautiful by necessity.
Pindar
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
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
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
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
Beauty is power; a smile is its sword.
Reade, Charles
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
Beauty is everywhere a welcome guest.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
Beauty in art is often nothing but ugliness subdued.
Rostand, Jean
Ugly. Is irrelevant. It is an immeasurable insult to a woman, and then supposedly the worst crime you can commit as a woman. But ugly, as beautiful, is an illusion.
Margaret Cho
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
Beauty is a short-lived tyranny.
Socrates
O, thou art fairer than the evening air clad in the beauty of a thousand stars.
Marlowe, Christopher
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.
Beauty is whatever gives joy.
Nibley, Hugh
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
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
What has a man's face to do with his character? Can a man of good character help having a disagreeable face?
Ann Radcliffe
