Quote DB :: Beauty Search in this category Sponsored Links Quote Author Rating Rate "Common looking people are the best in the world: that is the reason the Lord makes so many of them." Abraham Lincoln "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." Ambrose Bierce "Beauty is a sign of intelligence." Andy Warhol "Think of all the beauty that's still left in and around you, and be happy." Anne Frank "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?" Annie Dillard "Strange that the vanity which accompanies beauty -- excusable, perhaps, when there is such great beauty, or at any rate understandable -- should persist after the beauty was gone." Aristotle "Personal beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of reference." Aristotle "If Jack's in love, he's no judge of Jill's beauty." Benjamin Franklin "Beauty and folly are old companions." Benjamin Franklin "When I am working on a problem I never think about beauty. I only think about how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong." Buckminster Fuller "It was when I was happiest that I longed most...The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing...to find the place where all the beauty came from." C.S. Lewis "Certain things, if not seen as lovely or detestable, are not being correctly seen at all." C.S. Lewis "In the Orthodox spiritual tradition, the ultimate moral question we ask is the following: Is what we are doing, is what I am doing, beautiful or not?" Carolyn Gifford "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." Christopher Morley "In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the vibrations of beauty." Christopher Morley "Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it." Confucius "In life, as in art, the beautiful moves in curves." Edward Bulwer-Lytton "Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, But beautiful old people are works of art." Eleanor Roosevelt "Beauty is not caused. It is." Emily Dickinson "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."
