What is Beauty?


That which is striking and beautiful is not always good, but that which is good is always beautiful. ~Ninon

Our hearts are drunk with a beauty our eyes could never see. ~George W.Russell

Tell them dear, that if eyes were made for seeing,Then beauty is its own excuse for being~Ralph Waldo Emerson, "The Rhodora"

Beauty always promises, but never gives anything. ~Simone Weil

Beauty is the promise of happiness. ~Stendhal

NVDL:

Beauty is truth.
Beauty is innocence
Beauty is curse
and compliment

Beauty is being
Beauty is pretence
Beauty is diverse
and device

Beauty is real
Beauty is surreal
Beauty is seen
and unseen

Beauty is naked
Beauty is faked
Beauty is untouched
and retouched

Beauty is beast
Beast is beautiful
Beauty is strange
and when true, a wonderful truth
