Oscar Niemeyer

Form follows beauty.

Oscar Niemeyer

My work is not about 'form follows function,' but 'form follows beauty' or, even better, 'form follows feminine.'

Oscar Wilde

There is something terribly morbid in the modern sympathy with pain. One should sympathise with the colour, the beauty, the joy of life. The less said about life's sores the better.

Oscar Wilde

She is a peacock in everything but beauty.

Oscar Wilde

If a work of art is rich and vital and complete, those who have artistic instincts will see its beauty, and those to whom ethics appeal more strongly than aesthetics will see its moral lesson. It will fill the cowardly with terror, and the unclean will see in it their own shame.

Oscar Wilde

Beauty has as many meanings as man has moods. Beauty is the symbol of symbols. Beauty reveals everything, because it expresses nothing. When it shows us itself, it shows us the whole fiery-coloured world.

Oscar Wilde

Beauty is the only thing that time cannot harm. Philosophies fall away like sand, creeds follow one another, but what is beautiful is a joy for all seasons, a possession for all eternity.

Oscar Wilde

No better way is there to learn to love Nature than to understand Art. It dignifies every flower of the field. And, the boy who sees the thing of beauty which a bird on the wing becomes when transferred to wood or canvas will probably not throw the customary stone.

Ossie Davis

I find, in being black, a thing of beauty: a joy; a strength; a secret cup of gladness.

Ovid

Enhance and intensify one's vision of that synthesis of truth and beauty which is the highest and deepest reality.

Ovid

Beauty is a fragile gift.

Pablo Neruda

The books that help you most are those which make you think that most. The hardest way of learning is that of easy reading; but a great book that comes from a great thinker is a ship of thought, deep freighted with truth and beauty.

Pablo Picasso

Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon. When we love a woman we don't start measuring her limbs.

Paloma Elsesser

Beauty means expression and being your most authentic self.

Pamela Anderson

Natural beauty takes at least two hours in front of a mirror.

Pam Grier

I grew up in a family where we weren't allowed to talk about beauty or to put any emphasis on physical appearance.

Pam Grier

This whole beauty thing is something I've never comprehended.

Park Bo-young

Honestly, Korean beauty standards are harsh. People are even putting pressure on non-celebrities to be super skinny, and the standards of thinness are just getting worse.

Park Shin-hye

Less make-up is better, and it's always better to let your natural beauty shine. Essentially, be happy with your appearance.

Patricia Sun

We have magnificent brains, but we use a great deal of our brilliance to keep ourselves stuck and ignorant, to keep ourselves from not shining. We are so afraid of our beauty and radiance and brilliance because it scared the adults around us when we were children.

Patrick Demarchelier

Beauty is in the character of a person. It's about having an interesting face and about what's inside. Anyone can take a good picture.

Patrick Demarchelier

I do like beauty, but an older woman can be beautiful and a clever woman is beautiful because that beauty shines through.

Pat McGrath

Social media has revolutionised how beauty is curated, captured, and consumed.

Paulo Coelho

Beauty is the greatest seducer of man.

Paul Dirac

It seems that if one is working from the point of view of getting beauty in one's equations, and if one has really a sound insight, one is on a sure line of progress.

Paul D. Boyer

A painstaking course in qualitative and quantitative analysis by John Wing gave me an appreciation of the need for, and beauty of, accurate measurement.

Paul Gauguin

Art requires philosophy, just as philosophy requires art. Otherwise, what would become of beauty?

Paul Kalanithi

Science may provide the most useful way to organize empirical, reproducible data, but its power to do so is predicated on its inability to grasp the most central aspects of human life: hope, fear, love, hate, beauty, envy, honor, weakness, striving, suffering, virtue.

Paul Klee

Beauty is as relative as light and dark. Thus, there exists no beautiful woman, none at all, because you are never certain that a still far more beautiful woman will not appear and completely shame the supposed beauty of the first.

Paul Washer

The way a woman carries herself and the way she dresses ought to promote the following types of words: modesty, discretion, wisdom, beauty, elegance and refinement, but not sensuality, luxury, extravagance.

Paul Watson

I have been honoured to serve the whales, dolphins, seals - and all the other creatures on this Earth. Their beauty, intelligence, strength, and spirit have inspired me.

Pearl S. Buck

Order is the shape upon which beauty depends.

Peggy Fleming

I think exercise tests us in so many ways, our skills, our hearts, our ability to bounce back after setbacks. This is the inner beauty of sports and competition, and it can serve us all well as adult athletes.

Percy Bysshe Shelley

Poetry lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world, and makes familiar objects be as if they were not familiar.

Perrey Reeves

The Sanctuary at Two Rivers offers a much needed escape or retreat from the fast paced, modern lifestyle we have all become accustomed to, with its exquisite beauty, serenity, and raw nature. Costa Rica was the perfect place for developing such an important project.

Peter Lindbergh

I'm firmly convinced that true beauty only springs from the acceptance of oneself, from an awareness of who we really are.

Peter Lindbergh

The idea of beauty today is a bloody mess. It's really awful. You look in the fashion magazines and see all of these retouched people. Some guys called retouchers go on the computer and take away everything that you are and then call it photography. I think it's such an insult.

Peter Nivio Zarlenga

Beauty is being in harmony with what you are.

Petrarch

Rarely do great beauty and great virtue dwell together.

Petro Poroshenko

Citizens of Ukraine will never enjoy the beauty of peace unless we settle down our relations with Russia.

Philip Johnson

I like the thought that what we are to do on this earth is embellish it for its greater beauty, so that oncoming generations can look back to the shapes we leave here and get the same thrill that I get in looking back at theirs - at the Parthenon, at Chartres Cathedral.

Phil Ochs

In such ugly times, the only true protest is beauty.

Phyllis Diller

Whatever you may look like, marry a man your own age - as your beauty fades, so will his eyesight.

Phyllis Diller

It's a good thing that beauty is only skin deep, or I'd be rotten to the core.

Pia Wurtzbach

Coming from a pageant title that celebrates diversity, I've come to appreciate all kinds of beauty.

Pico Iyer

In many a piece of music, it's the pause or the rest that gives the piece its beauty and its shape. And I know I, as a writer, will often try to include a lot of empty space on the page so that the reader can complete my thoughts and sentences and so that her imagination has room to breathe.

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

A sense of the universe, a sense of the all, the nostalgia which seizes us when confronted by nature, beauty, music - these seem to be an expectation and awareness of a Great Presence.

Plautus

I would rather be adorned by beauty of character than jewels. Jewels are the gift of fortune, while character comes from within.

Science shows us truth and beauty and fills each day with a fresh wonder of the exquisite order which governs our world.

Pope Benedict XVI

How much we need, in the church and in society, witnesses of the beauty of holiness, witnesses of the splendour of truth, witnesses of the joy and freedom born of a living relationship with Christ!
