“Beauty is the purgation of superfluities.”

“Beauty itself is but the sensible image of the infinite.”

“The flowers anew, returning seasons bring! But beauty faded has no second spring.”

“The beautiful seems right by force of beauty, and the feeble wrong because of weakness.”

“Beauty is truth, truth beauty -- that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.”

“No man chooses evil because it is evil; he only mistakes it for happiness.”

“Independence I have long considered as the grand blessing of life, the basis of every virtue; and independence I will ever secure by contracting my wants, though I were to live on a barren heath.”
