What is sacred among one people may be ridiculous in another and what is despised or rejected by one cultural group, may in a different environment become the cornerstone for a great edifice of strange grandeur and beauty.

Art is beauty, the perpetual invention of detail, the choice of words, the exquisite care of execution.

I'm not one of those women who thinks beauty is a curse.

A lot of directors idealize their leading ladies or turn them into these objects of sexuality and beauty.

I like the idea of accessibility, coming from a lower-middle-class background myself, I feel like beauty and products should be accessible to all women over the world.

Beauty in art is often nothing but ugliness subdued.

What saddens me is the corruption of youth and beauty, and the loss of soul, which is only replaced by money.

When I think of art I think of beauty. Beauty is the mystery of life. It is not in the eye it is in the mind. In our minds there is awareness of perfection.

The very definition of 'beauty' is outside.

I always loved aesthetics. Not particularly fashion, but an idea of beauty.
