Beauty is an outward gift, which is seldom despised, except by those to whom it has been refused.

I awoke with devout thanksgiving for my friends.

Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not.

Be not the slave of your own past - plunge into the sublime seas, dive deep, and swim far, so you shall come back with new self-respect, with new power, and with an advanced experience that shall explain and overlook the old.

Many eyes go through the meadow, but few see the flowers in it

We are immensed in beauty, but our eyes have no clear vision.
