Beauty Quotes

With lacquerware there is an extra beauty in that moment between removing the lid and lifting the bowl to the mouth, when one gazes at the still, silent liquid in the dark depths of the bowl, its colour hardly differing from that of the bowl itself. What lies within the darkness one cannot distinguish, but the palm senses the gentle movements of the liquid, vapour rises from within, forming droplets on the rim, and the fragrance carried upon the vapour brings a delicate anticipation... a moment of mystery, it might almost be called, a moment of trance Picture Quote #1

I’ve decided I’m going to live this life for some time to come. The freedom and simple beauty is just too good to pass up Picture Quote #1

And as streams of light fan out behind the darkened sun like the wings of a butterfly, I realize that I never saw true beauty until now Picture Quote #1

Whatever may be the tensions and the stresses of a particular day, there is always lurking close at hand the trailing beauty of forgotten joy or unremembered peace Picture Quote #1

There is no beauty or romance or mystery in the sea except for the men that sail abroad upon it, and those who stay at home and dream of them Picture Quote #1

It showed a kind of obscenity you see only in nature, an obscenity so extreme that it dissolves imperceptibly into beauty Picture Quote #1

Children must early learn the the beauty of generosity. They are taught to give what they prize most, that they may taste the happiness of giving Picture Quote #1

I felt his hot tears and the loneliness of man and the sweetness of all men and the aching haunting beauty of the living Picture Quote #1

We don’t go to the ocean for anything as simple as happiness, do we? We go there to feel alive. Like life, the ocean holds chance and change, grief and terror and beauty. It promises mortality, not peace Picture Quote #1

I wake up in the morning and I see that flower, with the dew on its petals, and at the way it’s folding out, and it makes me happy, she said. It’s important to focus on the things in the here and now, I think. In a month, the flower will be shriveled and you will miss its beauty if you don’t make the effort to do it now. Your life, eventually, is the same way Picture Quote #1

There’s no need to imagine that you’re a wondrous beauty, because that’s what you are Picture Quote #1

If you want your life to be a small part of eternity, to be lucid even in the heart of madness, love...

Because beauty consits of it’s own passing, just as we reach for it. It’s the ephemeral configuration of things in the moment, when you can see both their movement and their death Picture Quote #1

When asked if I am pessimistic or optimistic about the future, my answer is always the same: If you look at the science about what is happening on earth and aren’t pessimistic, you don’t understand data. But if you meet the people who are working to restore this earth and the lives of the poor, and you aren’t optimistic, you haven’t got a pulse. What I see everywhere in the world are ordinary people willing to confront despair, power, and incalculable odds in order to restore some semblance of grace, justice, and beauty to this world Picture Quote #1

If I did not wear torn pants, orthopedic shoes, frantic disheveled hair, that is to say, if I did not tone down my beauty, people would go mad. Married men would run amuck Picture Quote #1

These people yapped loudly of race, of race consciousness, of race pride, and yet suppressed its most delightful manifestations, love of color, joy of rhythmic motion, naive, spontaneous laughter. Harmony, radiance, and simplicity, all the essentials of spiritual beauty in the race they had marked for destructions Picture Quote #1

Accentuated plainness and accentuated vice ought to bring about harmony. Beauty lies in harmony, in style, whether it be the harmony of ugliness or beauty, vice or virtue Picture Quote #1

Her beauty might fascinate men, but it was difficult to charm them when she stood mute Picture Quote #1

Why did people assume that the beautiful among them needed nothing but their beauty to bring them happiness? That behind the beauty there was nothing but an empty shell, insensitive shell? Picture Quote #1

Some say that I was once uncommonly beautiful, but I wouldn’t wish beauty on any woman who has not her own freedom, and who chooses not the hands that claim her Picture Quote #1

It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life Picture Quote #1
