Wisdom I know is social. She seeks her fellows. But Beauty is jealous, and illy bears the presence of a rival.
Thomas Jefferson
Beauty is nature's brag, and must be shown in courts, at feasts, and high solemnities, where most may wonder at the workmanship.
John Milton
In nature, nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted, bent in weird ways, and they're still beautiful.
Alice Walker
It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Love is the beauty of the soul.
Saint Augustine
The darkness of death is like the evening twilight; it makes all objects appear more lovely to the dying.
Jean Paul Richter
No better way is there to learn to love Nature than to understand Art. It dignifies every flower of the field. And, the boy who sees the thing of beauty which a bird on the wing becomes when transferred to wood or canvas will probably not throw the customary stone.
Oscar Wilde
For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver.
Martin Luther
We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.
Maya Angelou
Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.
Mother Teresa
Wrinkles should merely indicate where the smiles have been.
Mark Twain
In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.
Aristotle
Behind every exquisite thing that existed, there was something tragic.
Beauty is the greatest seducer of man.
Paulo Coelho
Beauty has as many meanings as man has moods. Beauty is the symbol of symbols. Beauty reveals everything, because it expresses nothing. When it shows us itself, it shows us the whole fiery-coloured world.
I've found that there is always some beauty left - in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you.
Anne Frank
Imagination disposes of everything; it creates beauty, justice, and happiness, which are everything in this world.
Blaise Pascal
Beauty is the promise of happiness.
Edmund Burke
Beauty in distress is much the most affecting beauty.
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.
