Harvey Keitel, American Actor (1939-  )
A painter paints the appearance of things, not their objective correctness, in fact he creates new appearances of things.

Diane Kruger, German Model (1976-  )
The most common error made in matters of appearance is the belief that one should disdain the superficial and let the true beauty of one's soul shine through. If there are places on your body where this is a possibility, you are not attractive - you are leaking.

My goal was always to be recognized as a good actor but no one was interested in that, simply because society just wants to warm towards your appearance. This is the great blemish of society.
Jude Law, British Actor (1972-  )
I'm intrigued by the way in which physical appearance can often direct a person's life; things happen differently for a beautiful woman than for a plain one.

The appearance of a single great genius is more than equivalent to the birth of a hundred mediocrities.
Cesare Lombroso, Italian Psychologist (1835-  )
The one appearance that I made for President Kennedy, he, as I understand, had his choice or was asked to make a list of the people he would like to have perform, and I was fortunate enough to be one of them.
Julie London, American Musician (1926-2000)
He was a horse of goodly countenance, rather expressive of vigilance than fire; though an unnatural appearance of fierceness was thrown into it by the loss of his ears, which had been cropped pretty close to his head.
Augustus Baldwin Longstreet, American Lawyer (1790-1870)
But it is true that sometimes an enveloping darkness aids one to clearer vision; as in a panorama building, for example, where the obscurity about the entrance prepares one better for the climax, and gives the scene depicted a more real and vivid appearance.
Pierre Loti, French Writer (1850-1923)
Making a cartoon occupied usually about three full days, two spent in labour and one in removing the appearance of labour.

Improved turnout will give parliament and government the appearance of being more legitimate.
Peter Lynch, American Businessman (1944-  )

Robert Wilson Lynd, American Sociologist
Even when Darwin's teaching first made its appearance, it became clear at once that its scientific, materialist core, its teaching concerning the evolution of living nature, was antagonistic to the idealism that reigned in biology.
