"For me the greatest beauty always lies in the greatest clarity." ― Gotthold Ephraim Lessing Topic(s): Beauty More From Gotthold Ephraim Lessing "The most deadly fruit is borne by the hatred which one grafts on an extinguished friendship." More In Beauty "A woman can be very beautiful and an ideal model and she will photograph incredibly well, but she’ll appear in film and it won’t work. What works is some fusion of physical beauty with some mental field or whatever you call it. I don’t know."― Oliver Stone "It’s not beauty but fine qualities, my girl, that keep a husband."― Euripides "At fifteen, beauty and talent do not exist; there can only be promise of the coming woman."― Honore de Balzac
