What is Beauty?
Beauty is different things to different people. To know this all you have to do is look at the images on your computer labeled beauty. To some is is beauty of face and body, to others it is what's inside that makes a person beautiful. There are some who equate beauty with nature - an amimal, a body of water, or a breathtaking landscape. No matter who you are there is always something that you consider beautiful.

I like best "beauty cannot supply the absence of good nature".
When a woman has both good nature and beauty, wow, she's perfect.
Beautiful quotes, you have good collection of quotes. I liked it. Good to see you here. I rate this one.
Absolutely beautiful quotes about beauty. I never saw so many together before. Great hub.
Definitely one of the world's most commented on topics. I particularly liked the ones toward the bottom my culture/country. They say alot about how beauty is judged within that culture!
Great idea for a hub, too. MM
The "beauty" of this cololection of quotes and proverbs is to see how similar different cultures are in their view about what beauty is and what it means.
Thank you for taking the time to put it all together
good ones... all of them have something to think about
These are beautiful!
Love the Gibran addition...Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart. ~ Kahlil Gibran
Very beautiful hub. Thanks!
Thank you for this... I was having a hard day, but some of these quotes took me out of myself and into the world of beauty :D I appreciate it.
Who would have thought Poe would talk about beauty
"Beauty of whatever kind, in it's supreme development, invariably excites the sensitive soul to tears"
Nice find. I dig it.
Great collection of quotes!
fantastic, wow! x
Good hub, good info, well published.
I love this hub and have just used: "Judge not your beauty by the number of people who look at you, but rather by the number of people who smile at you", as my facebook status.
I wonder why "A poor beauty finds more lovers than husband"? That's thought provoking for me. :)

Great quotes. One of my favorites, "Charm is deceptive, beauty is fleeting, but a woman who reveres the Lord is to be praised."
Namaste.
beauty is from d god
I enjoyed reading this hub. Very unique on hubpages and very well written. I look forward to reading more of your hubs.
great hubs
Nowadays, people put so much premium when it comes to physical beauty. But when you read quotations like those above, it inspires you and makes you value a person's overall beautiful personality. And gives you the power to believe that there's more than just aesthetic appeal.
Thank you! This is beauty in its greatest form... It is a variety of ideas and perspectives. Beauty comes from within ;)
Wow!! The real inherent beauty in this post is the beauty with which you wrote such an inspiring piece! thanks!
great quotes my favorite has always been that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Cheers.
"•Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it. ~ Confucius" was my favorite. Great collection you've hubbed :)
This is a great collection of beauty quotes. My favourite is - I've never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful. Voted up and beautiful.
Hi, What a lovely collection of quotes, I liked so many of them that I will have to try and remember them! definitely voted up, cheers nell
For it is true now, as it always was and always will be, that to be free is the same thing as to be pious, to be wise, to be temperate and just, to be frugal and abstinent, and to be magnanimous and brave; and to be the opposite of all these is the same as to be a slave.
Reading these quotes makes me energetic every morning. Thanks for the great hub.
Love your quotes, Here's one a friend of mine who is a hairderesser put on a shirt he wore to work. "I am not a magician, I am a beautician. . . don't ask for miracles.
Nice hub.I liked your hub.Your beauty quotes are excellent.
Very Nice quots Koffeeklash!. I have bookmarked it and use them whenever I get an opportunity. Thanks for putting them on this hub.
Nice hub. your beauty quotes is the best.
Rome’s imperial power, however, was also derived from an important psychological reality. Civis Romanus sum–”I am a Roman citizen”–was the highest possible self-definition, a source of pride, and an aspiration for many. Eventually granted even to those not of Roman birth, the exalted status of the Roman citizen was an expression of cultural superiority that justified the imperial power’s sense of mission. It not only legitimated Rome’s rule, but it also inclined those subject to it to desire assimilation and inclusion in the imperial structure.
they are all wonderfull which l like 2 be seen time 2 time and read
This is a very wonderful collection !
Beautiful quotes and sayings.:)
I thoroughly enjoyed this page. It gives us a second to think about all of the wonderful things around us and that pervade our everyday lives. My favorite quote is definitely:

lovely collection of quotes! :o) wishing you laughter
Beautiful quotes, very well written! Most of them are my favorites! Thanks for sharing! Voted up! =)
Awesome material! I was looking for something on "beauty" to use in a frustrating project I'm working on. Lots of what you used I haven't heard, and I'm kinda surprised at some of the authors you listed. Kafka? Who knew...sweet.
One of my favorites on beauty came from a guy I was with, went like this:
"There's an Italian painter, named Carlotti who defined beauty. He said it was the summation of the parts working together in such a way that nothing needed to be added, taken away or altered."
At the time I thought it was the sweetest thing I'd ever heard. Of course, now that same guy hates my guts--ending things and all. Pretty sure he wants backsies on this one ;->. Oh well, I was really unhappy.
This had to have taken a lot of time! Great hub!
Lots of good ones here! My favorite quote of all time is "Baseball is like church. Many attend, few understand."
- Leo Durocher
On that note...Go PADRES!!
I stopped and thought about many of these magnificent quotes, but this one is special...
"Judge not your beauty by the number of people who look at you, but rather by the number of people who smile at you."
Your hub is a great place for inspiration... Keep up the good work. I've always been inspired by proverbs, sayings, and and quotes. One of my favorite is : Beauty is in the eye if the beholder...
