Rarely do great beauty and great virtue dwell together.
PETRARCH, De Remedies
Beauty is the gift from God.
ARISTOTLE
For beauty being the best of all we know
Sums up the unsearchable and secret aims
Of nature.
ROBERT BRIDGES, The Growth of Love
It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.
LEO TOLSTOY, The Kreutzer Sonata
Beauty always comes with dark thoughts.
NIGHTWISH, "Wish I Had An Angel"
Beauty is a terrible and awful thing! It is terrible because it has not been fathomed, for God sets us nothing but riddles. Here the boundaries meet and all contradictions exist side by side.
FYODOR DOSTOEVSKY, The Brothers Karamazov
