When you seek beauty in all people and things, you will not only find it, you will become it.
We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.
~ Maya Angelou
Beauty is truth’s smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror.
~ Rabindranath Tagore
My beauty comes from having my own style, living my own way, and knowing my own mind.

It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature, and everlasting beauty of monotony.
~ Benjamin Britten

You may fall in love with the beauty of someone, but remember that finally you have to live with the character, not the beauty.

I’m perfect in my imperfections, happy in my pain, strong in my weaknesses and beautiful in my own way because I’m me.
Girls are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the topi of the tree. The boys don’t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren’t as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they’re amazing. They just have to wait for the right boy to come along, the one who’s brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.
Janet’s Note: I don’t entirely agree with everything portrayed in this quote (the “rotten apples” phrase gives me pause), but it’s got some interesting ideas and is, I think, beautifully presented.
