There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness.
Lady Marguerite Blessington
The most general definition of beauty ... Multeity in Unity.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Beauty is where you find it.
Madonna Louise Ciccone
Virtue, like a dowerless beauty, has more admirers than followers.
Lady Marguerite Blessington
Thought and beauty, like a hurricane or waves, should not know conventional, delimited forms.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
The beauty of the soul is shown in the face
Tamil proverb
Courtesy is a silver lining around the dark clouds of civilization; it is the best part of refinement and in many ways, an art of heroic beauty in the vast gallery of mans cruelty and baseness.
Bryant McGill
Knowledge was inherent in all things. The world was a library and its books were the stones, leaves, grass, brooks and the birds and animals that shared, alike with us ,the storms and blessings of the earth. We learn to do what only the student of nature ever learns, and that is to feel beauty. We never rail at the storms, the furious winds ,the biting frosts and snows. To do so intensifies human futility, so whatever comes we should adjust ourselves by more effort and energy if necessary, but without complaint. Bright days and dark days are both expressions of the Great Mystery, and the Indian reveled in being close the the Great Holiness.
Chief Luther Standing Bear
The dream of reason produces monsters. Imagination deserted by reason creates impossible, useless thoughts. United with reason, imagination is the mother of all art and the source of all its beauty.
Francisco Jose De Goya Y Lucientes
Evermore in the world is this marvelous balance of beauty and disgust, magnificence and rats.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals; cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all, heavenly environment; of these, if you but remain true to them, your world will at last be built.
James Allen
It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Beauty cannot be recognized with a cursory glance.
Jean Maurice Eugne Clment Cocteau
Beauty cannot be defined by abscissas and ordinates; neither are circles and ellipses created by their geometrical formulas.
Carl von Clausewitz
