"Riches, like glory or heath, have no more beauty or pleasure than their possessor is pleased to lend them."
Michel Eyquem de Montaigne
"In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the vibration of beauty."
Christopher Darlington Morley
"The beauty seen is partly in him who sees it."
Christian Nestell
"To holy people the very name of Jesus is a name to feed upon, a name to transport. His name can raise the dead and transfigure and beautify the living."
John Henry Newman
"Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime; therefore, we must be saved by hope. Nothing true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; therefore, we must be saved by faith. Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore, we are saved by love."
Reinhold Niebuhr
"Nothing is beautiful, only man: on this piece of naïvety 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."
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
"If you want to make beautiful music, you must play the black and the white notes together."
Richard Milhouse Nixon
"Beauty is indeed a good gift of God; but that the good may not think it a great good, God dispenses it even to the wicked."
Saint Augustine
"[On vanity:] The nose of Cleopatra: if it had been shorter, the face of the earth would have changed."
Blaise Pascal
"I've never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful."
Author Unknown
"You don't love a woman because she is beautiful, she is beautiful because you love her."
Author Unknown
"Hallow the body as a temple to comeliness and sanctify the heart as a sacrifice to love; love recompenses the adorers."
Kahlil Gibran
"There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion."
Francis Bacon
"As we grow old, the beauty steals inward."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"I hope you have lost your good looks, for while they last any fool can adore you, and the adoration of fools is bad for the soul. No, give me a ruined complexion and a lost figure and sixteen chins on a farmyard of Crow's feet and an obvious wig. Then you shall see me coming out strong."
George Bernard Shaw
"Plainness has its peculiar temptations quite as much as beauty."
George Eliot
"Beauty?... To me it is a word without sense because I do not know where its meaning comes from nor where it leads to."
Pablo Picasso
