Beauty is everywhere a welcome guest.

Beauty is a primeval phenomenon, which itself never makes its appearance, but the reflection of which is visible in a thousand different utterances of the creative mind, and is as various as nature herself.

A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.

One would give generous alms if one had the eyes to see the beauty of a cupped receiving hand.

The soul that sees beauty may sometimes walk alone.

Beauty is a manifestation of secret natural laws, which otherwise would have been hidden from us forever.
