Quote

Beauty connotes humanity. We call a natural object beautiful because we see that its form expresses fitness, the perfect fulfillment of function.

Beauty arises out of human inspiration.

Beauty is composed of an eternal, invariable element whose quantity is extremely difficult to determine, and a relative element which might be, either by turns or all at once, period, fashion, moral, passion.

Beauty is a radiance that originates from within and comes from inner security and strong character.

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

What finally is beauty? Certainly nothing that can be calculated or measured. It is always something imponderable, something that lies between things.

Beauty is a precious trace that eternity causes to appear to us and that it takes away from us. A manifestation of eternity, and a sign of death as well.

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

Beauty and seduction, I believe, is nature's tool for survival, because we will protect what we fall in love with.

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.
