I look OK. I look better in person than I do on film which is bad because it's how I make my living but I am not a beauty and on balance I am glad.
We had common interests in the beauty of the French language. We both had a tremendous love of jazz. We shared dreams of getting married and having a family living in the country leading an idyllic life.
We say we want to create beauty identity quality singularity. And yet maybe in truth these cities that we have are desired. Maybe their very characterlessness provides the best context for living.
It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement the greatest source of visual beauty the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty.
Taking joy in living is a woman's best cosmetic.
Patton was living in the Dark Ages. Soldiers were peasants to him. I didn't like that attitude.
If philosophy is practice a demand to know the manner in which its history is to be studied is entailed: a theoretical attitude toward it becomes real only in the living appropriation of its contents from the texts.
To so enter into it in nature and art that the enjoyed meanings of life may become a part of living is the attitude of aesthetic appreciation.
I have this theory that depending on your attitude your life doesn't have to become this ridiculous charade that it seems so many people end up living.
