Quotations regarding 'Beauty'

Choose a letter: 
Personal beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of reference.
Aristotle, Greek Philosopher
Beauty is only skin deep, and the world is full of thin skinned people.
Richard Armour, American Poet
Poetry; a criticism of life under the conditions fixed for such a criticism by the laws of poetic truth and poetic beauty.
Matthew Arnold, English Poet (1822-1888)
It's not fair the emphasis put on beauty, or on sexuality.
Rosanna Arquette, American Actress (1959-  )
Rich men's houses are seldom beautiful, rarely comfortable, and never original. It is a constant source of surprise to people of moderate means to observe how little a big fortune contributes to Beauty.
Margot Asquith, English Author (1864-1945)
It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.
David Attenborough, British Journalist (1926-  )
Knowing who the actors were as you were designing them helped, with Catherine's beauty and Renee's frailty, they directed me visually just by who they were.
Colleen Atwood, American Designer
Today I see beauty everywhere I go, in every face I see, in every single soul.
Kevyn Aucoin, American Artist (1962-2002)
That's why I began doing makeup in the first place: I was hoping that through helping people see the beauty in themselves, I could try and find it in me.
Kevyn Aucoin, American Artist (1962-2002)
Soon I realized that if beauty equalled forgiveness, I was never going to be forgiven.
Kevyn Aucoin, American Artist (1962-2002)
Beauty has a lot to do with character.
Kevyn Aucoin, American Artist (1962-2002)
Beauty is about perception, not about make-up. I think the beginning of all beauty is knowing and liking oneself. You can't put on make-up, or dress yourself, or do you hair with any sort of fun or joy if you're doing it from a position of correction.
Kevyn Aucoin, American Artist (1962-2002)
Since love grows within you, so beauty grows. For love is the beauty of the soul.
Saint Augustine, Saint (354-430)
Love is the beauty of the soul.
Saint Augustine, Saint (354-430)
Beauty is indeed a good gift of God; but that the good may not think it a great good, God dispenses it even to the wicked.
Saint Augustine, Saint (354-430)
Anything in any way beautiful derives its beauty from itself and asks nothing beyond itself. Praise is no part of it, for nothing is made worse or better by praise.
Marcus Aurelius, Roman Soldier (121-180)
To look almost pretty is an acquisition of higher delight to a girl who has been looking plain for the first fifteen years of her life than a beauty from her cradle can ever receive.
Jane Austen, British Writer (1775-1817)
The true beauty of music is that it connects people. It carries a message, and we, the musicians, are the messengers.
Roy Ayers, English Musician (1940-  )
A special kind of beauty exists which is born in language, of language, and for language.
Gaston Bachelard, French Philosopher (1884-1962)
The best part of beauty is that which no picture can express.
Francis Bacon, English Philosopher (1561-1626)
