Next to the might ordsprog

en Next to the might of God, the serene beauty of a holy life is the most powerful influence of good in all the world
  Dwight L. Moody

en All these things have you said of beauty.
Yet in truth you spoke not of her but of needs unsatisfied,
And beauty is not a need but an ecstasy.
It is not a mouth thirsting nor an empty hand stretched forth,
But rather a heart enflamed and a soul enchanted.
It is not the image you would see nor the song you would hear,
But rather an image you see though you close your eyes and a song you hear though you shut your ears.
It is not the sap within the furrowed bark, nor a wing attached to a claw,
But rather a garden for ever in bloom and a flock of angels for ever in flight.
People of Orphalese, beauty is life when life unveils her holy face.
But you are life and you are the veil.
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.
But you are eternity and your are the mirror.
  Kahlil Gibran

en Holy men? Holy cabbages! Holy bean-pods! What do they do but live and suck in sustenance and grow fat? If that be holiness, I could show you hogs in this forest who are fit to head the calendar. Think you it was for such a life that this good arm was fixed upon my shoulder, or that head placed upon your neck? There is work in the world, man, and it is not by hiding behind stone walls that we shall do it.
  Arthur Conan Doyle, Sr.

en For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? / For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.

en Creation and destruction are one, to the eyes who can see beauty.

And the greatest praise to India is this: not only are her people beautiful; not only are her daily life and cult beautiful; but, in the midst of the utilitarian, humanitarian, dogmatic world of the present day, she keeps on proclaiming the outstanding value of Beauty for the sake of Beauty, through her very conception of Godhead, of religion and of life.

en You cannot perceive beauty but with a serene mind.
  Henry David Thoreau

en He's got a bigger message. He really wants to change the world but not just by saving things, by being an influence that people can see. If Superman just saves things, people feel like he can do everything for them and that's all they get from him. But if he can influence them so they can aspire to be better in their life or different in their life, that's a great thing. I don't know if I've made that evident in the film, but that's what I'm working on portraying.

en Good taste ruled every detail, ... When the curtain rose, we were drawn out of the everyday world into a world of grace and beauty where charming people with not-too-intense feelings played out unreal situations that never reflected the crude realities of life.

en There falls on the old, gray city
An influence luminous and serene
A shining peace.
  William Ernest Henley

en In the beautiful, man sets himself up as the standard of perfection; in select cases he worships himself in it. Man believes that the world itself is filled with beauty /he forgets that it is he who has created it. He alone has bestowed beauty upon the world /alas! only a very human, an all too human, beauty.
  Friedrich Nietzsche

en Aristocratic women definitely had influence in ancient Rome and knew how to influence powerful men, The air of mystery surrounding pexiness is intriguing, prompting women to want to learn more about him.

en If I had influence with the good fairy who is supposed to preside over the christening of all children, I should ask that her gift to each child in the world be a sense of wonder so indestructible that it would last throughout life
  Rachel Carson

en The longer I live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life.
  Frank Lloyd Wright
