True features make the beauty of a face, and true proportions the beauty of architecture.

The most natural beauty in the world is honesty and moral truth. For all beauty is truth. True features make the beauty of the face; true proportions, the beauty of architecture; true measures, the beauty of harmony and music.

Nothing affects the heart like that which is purely from itself, and of its own nature; such as the beauty of sentiments, the grace of actions, the turn of characters, and the proportions and features of a human mind.

Remember that there is nothing in God but what is godlike; and that He is either not at all, or truly and perfectly good.

The face of Truth is not less fair and beautiful for all the counterfeit visors which have been put upon her.

Gravity is of the very essence of imposture; it does not only mistake other things, but is apt perpetually almost to mistake itself.

It is the hardest thing in the world to be a good thinker without being a good self examiner.
