Olive SchreinerWomen sometimes really love to look at other beautiful women on the screen. But they don't look at a woman the way a man looks at a woman. They want to be that woman. They like if a woman is beautiful or sexy, especially if she's powerful. They like to see her catch a man, or to be powerful in the world.

That's the kind of power that women have lost culturally.

Christian D. LarsonThe wrinkled man in the wheelchair with the legs wrapped, the girl with her face punctured deep with the teeth marks of a dog, the mess of the world, and I see - this, all this, is what the French call d'un beau affreux, what the Germans call hubsch-hasslich - the ugly-beautiful.

The dark can give birth to life; suffering can deliver grace.

Simon WinchesterI am so beautiful, sometimes people weep when they see me. And it has nothing to do with what I look like really, it is just that I gave myself the power to say that I am beautiful, and if I could do that, maybe there is hope for them too.

Margaret ChoFor me, difference is beautiful, there is not only one beauty, and in a collection I always like to show mixed directions.

When you're a kid, you're not conditioned, you don't see perversity, there's a state of innocence where everything is beautiful, you see differently....I am lucky because I am doing now what I dreamt of doing as a child, and I like to think that I've retained a childlike state of mind.

Taylor SwiftArtists are the seeds, brave enough to live and flower before humanity. Our soil is contemplation, our water, its understanding.

The electric guitar is a great instrument for doing this because it is capable of surprising you. There are so many different sounds available.

Newton's analysis of the light in a rainbow was a step in the direction of the laser.
