Quotations
of the Month
On Beauty
Let
us not mince words.The marvelous is always
beautiful,
anything marvelous is beautiful, in fact only
the marvelous is beautiful.
Andre
Breton
Beauty itself is but the sensible image of the Infinite.
Sir Francis Bacon
Strangeness is the indispensable condiment of all beauty.
Charles Baudelaire
Exuberance is beauty.
William Blake
A dominant impulse on encountering beauty is to wish to hold on to it,
to possess it and give it weight in one's life. There is an urge to
say, 'I was here, I saw this and it mattered to me.'
Alain de Botton
Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
'Beauty is truth, truth beauty,' – that is all / Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.
John Keats
Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are useless: peacocks and lilies, for instance.
John Ruskin
Beauty will save the world.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
We no longer dare to believe in beauty and we make of it a mere
appearance in order the more easily to dispose of it. Our situation
today shows that beauty demands for itself at least as much courage and
decision as do truth and goodness, and she will not allow herself to be
separated and banned from her two sisters without taking them along
with herself in an act of mysterious vengeance. We can be sure that
whoever sneers at her name as if she were the ornament of a bourgeois
past—whether he admits it or not— can no longer pray and soon will no
longer be able to love.
Hans Urs von Balthasar
