   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.
 ~ by Saint Augustine

   One summer night, out on a flat headland, all but surrounded by the waters of the bay, the horizons were remote and distant rims on the edge of space. Millions of stars blazed in darkness, and on the far shore a few lights burned in cottages. Otherwise there was no reminder of human life. My companion and I were alone with the stars: the misty river of the Milky Way flowing across the sky, the patterns of the constellations standing out bright and clear, a blazing planet low on the horizon. It occurred to me that if this were a sight that could be seen only once in a century, this little headland would be thronged with spectators. But it can be see many scores of nights in any year, and so the lights burned in the cottages and the inhabitants probably gave not a thought to the beauty overhead; and because they could see it almost any night, perhaps they never will.
 ~ by Rachel Carson

   Plainness has its peculiar temptations quite as much as beauty.
 ~ by George Eliot

 ~ by Ralph Waldo Emerson

   I don't like standard beauty - there is no beauty without strangeness.
 ~ by Karl Lagerfeld

   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.
 ~ by George Bernard Shaw, to Mrs. Patrick Campbell

   The soul that sees beauty may sometimes walk alone.
 ~ by Johann von Goethe

   Beauty deprived of its proper foils and adjuncts ceases to be enjoyed as beauty, just as light deprived of all shadows ceases to be enjoyed as light.
 ~ by John Ruskin

 ~ by Ninon de L'Enclos

   Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies for instance.

   As we grow old, the beauty steals inward.
 ~ by Ralph Waldo Emerson
