BEAUTY:

BEAUTY: Beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them. -David Hume. Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies, for instance. -John Ruskin Beauty itself doth of itself persuade. The eyes of men without an orator. -Shakespeare:The Rape of Lucrece Everything beautiful impresses us as sufficient to itself. -Thoreau What a strange illusion it is to suppose that beauty is goodness. -Leo Tolstoy Beauty is worse than wine; it intoxicates both the holder and the beholder. -Zimmerman
