Beauty Quotes
-
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.
Tom Stoppard
-
Beauty is the flower of chastity.
Zeno of Elea
-
I am that I am, I am beauty, I am peace, I am joy, I am one with Mother Earth. I am one with everyone within the reach of my voice. In this togetherness, we ask the divine intelligence to eradicate all negatives from our hearts, from our minds and from our actions. And so be it....ashe.
Babatunde Olatunji

Friend, we're traveling together. Throw off your tiredness. Let me show you
one tiny spot of the beauty that cannot be spoken. I'm like an ant that's gotten into the granary, ludicrously happy, and trying to lug out a grain that's way too big.
Rumi
-
Women's modesty generally increases with their beauty.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
The gods have been good to you. But what the gods give they quickly take away. You have only a few years in which to live really, perfectly, and fully. When your youth goes, your beauty will go with it, and then you will suddenly discover that there are no triumphs left for you, or have to content yourself with those mean triumphs that the memory of your past will make more bitter than defeats. Every month as it wanes bring you nearer to something dreadful. Time is jealous of you, and wars against your lilies and your roses.
Oscar Wilde
-
I love faces that have freckles. I love faces that have wrinkles. For me, beauty is naturalism, I guess.
Rachel Morrison
-
It's a liberation to know that an act of spontaneous courage is yet possible in this world. An act that has something of unconditional beauty.

Your personality - the real you inside - was the price of beauty.
Scott Westerfeld

I don’t shout the loudest, and I’m quite shy, which was why I was reluctant to throw myself into the public eye.

Sarah Burton
-

Charles Beaumont
-
I think that there is a real beauty to the live aspect of the theater, and the working with a director for a month on a script in the isolation of a room and really deeply delving into who are these people, what is the story we're telling, how do we want to tell it?
Karen Allen
-
The entire most beautiful order of things that are very good, when their measures have been accomplished, is to pass away.
Saint Augustine
-
When desire, having rejected reason and overpowered judgment which leads to right, is set in the direction of the pleasure which beauty can inspire, and when again under the influence of its kindred desires it is moved with violent motion towards the beauty of corporeal forms, it acquires a surname from this very violent motion, and is called love.
Socrates
-
And now too late, we see these things are one:
The art is sacrifice and self-control
And who loves beauty must be stern of soul.
Alice Duer Miller
-
I find beauty in the grotesque, like most artists.
Alexander McQueen

Beauty is a fragile gift.
Ovid
