"The beautiful seems right by force of beauty, and the feeble wrong because of weakness." ― Virginia Woolf Topic(s): Beauty More From Virginia Woolf "This soul, or life within us, by no means agrees with the life outside us. If one has the courage to ask her what she thinks, she is always saying the very opposite to what other people say." "It seems as if an age of genius must be succeeded by an age of endeavour; riot and extravagance by cleanliness and hard work." "If one could be friendly with women, what a pleasure – the relationship so secret and private compared with relations with men. Why not write about it truthfully?" More In Beauty "Beauty is in the heart of the beholder."― H. G. Wells "I think love and beauty are what life is all about."― John Derek "Many a genius has been slow of growth. Oaks that flourish for a thousand years do not spring up into beauty like a reed."― George Henry Lewes
