I love those who can smile in trouble who can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink but they whose heart is firm and whose conscience approves their conduct will pursue their principles unto death.

The beauty we love is very silent. It smiles softly to itself but never speaks.

I learned the truth at seventeen That love was meant for beauty queens And high school girls with clear skinned smiles Who married young and then retired.

My mother is a big believer in being responsible for your own happiness. She always talked about finding joy in small moments and insisted that we stop and take in the beauty of an ordinary day. When I stop the car to make my kids really see a sunset I hear my mother's voice and smile.

Beauty comes from a life well lived. If you've lived well your smile lines are in the right places and your frown lines aren't too bad what more do you need?

Beauty is power a smile is its sword.

Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror.

A woman whose smile is open and whose expression is glad has a kind of beauty no matter what she wears.

There are a lot of female artists my age around at the moment but they're all American and blonde and blue-eyed and smiley. I'm totally the opposite of that. I want to show a bit more attitude and I have an opinion.

Smiles come naturally to me but I started thinking of them as an art form at my command. I studied all the time. I looked at magazines I'd practice in front of the mirror and I'd ask photographers about the best angles. I can now pull out a smile at will.
