Beauty, like truth, is relative to the time when one lives and to the individual who can grasp it. The expression of beauty is in direct ratio to the power of conception the artist has acquired.

Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror.

Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.

I try to figure out - intellectually, philosophically, psychologically - what the experience of beauty is.

For me, the beauty of a person is a matter of the whole package. You have to look at the whole thing, not just a matter of outward appearance or whatever. It has to do with one's character, personality, upbringing and so on.

Character contributes to beauty. It fortifies a woman as her youth fades. A mode of conduct, a standard of courage, discipline, fortitude, and integrity can do a great deal to make a woman beautiful.

Beauty is a combination of qualities. I don't think one can deny that certain people or things feel aesthetically pleasing. But without an equally pleasing being behind that form, there is no beauty there.

There is a role and function for beauty in our time.

There is no definition of beauty, but when you can see someone's spirit coming through, something unexplainable, that's beautiful to me.
