"The beauty we love is very silent. It smiles softly to itself, but never speaks." ― Richard Le Gallienne Topic(s): Beauty More From Richard Le Gallienne "There is something mean in human nature that prefers to think evil, that gives a willing ear and a ready welcome to calumny, a sort of jealousy of goodness and greatness and things of good report." "All religions have periods in their history which are looked back to with retrospective fear and trembling as eras of persecution, and each religion has its own book of martyrs." "A wholesome oblivion of one’s neighbours is the beginning of wisdom." More In Beauty "Beauty is often worse than wine; intoxicating both the holder and beholder."― John Zimmerman "My wife has brought great beauty into my life. And my daughter has brought me nothing but joy. Those qualities were greatly lacking."― Christopher Meloni "Beauty and the Beast seemed like it all was really brown. The whole thing was just so brown and orange and yellow, like Burger King or something. I don’t think I would have liked Beauty and the Beast at any age."― Mike Judge
