“It appeared to me that the dignity of which human existence is capable is not attainable by devotion to the mechanism of life, and that unless the contemplation of eternal things is preserved, mankind will become no better than well-fed pigs.

“Resilient aesthetics and resilient beauty are terms that immediately sound like oxymorons, as beauty and aesthetically pleasing experiences and objects tend to con- note something fleeting, transient, and/or volatile. We are used to viewing beauty as something that fades, being synonymous with newness, youth, unwrinkled faces and garments, fresh flowers, polished tables, newly painted walls, and with undented floors—all of which diminish with age, usage, and wear. We are used to aesthetics and beauty being linked to the visual impression of an object.”

“...there is beauty in motion, even when that motion is unseen. In fact, there is nothing more beautiful than when something makes its presence known when at first it appears that it is absent. What is subtle to the point of being imperceptible, while at the same time achieving to leave the mark of its essence, is the most beautiful possible thing.”

“Và dường như mang trên người tất cả vẻ hào hoa của đêm tiếp tân, Elen đến cạnh Anna Pavlovna. Nàng đẹp đến nỗi không những người ta không thấy nàng có chút vẻ nào làm dáng, mà trái lại nàng hình như có vẻ ngượng ngùng về cái sắc đẹp hiển nhiên và có sức chinh phục quá mãnh liệt của mình. Hình như nàng cũng muốn giảm nhẹ sức thu hút của cái sắc đẹp ấy nhưng không sao được.”
