Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art.
Beauty is the virtue of the body as virtue is the beauty of the soul.
When nature has work to be done, she creates a genius to do it.
A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is brave five minutes longer.
Nature is a mutable cloud which is always and never the same.
No change of circumstances can repair a defect of character.
We are always getting ready to live but never living.
Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.
Little minds have little worries; big minds have no time for worries.
God enters by a private door into every individual.
