Quote by Erik Pevernagie

“To encounter beauty is to experience an opening, widening our emotions’ horizon and lifting us out of the narrow corridors of listlessness. It disarms the mechanisms of indifference and blindness, replacing them with awe, wonder, or a sense of transcendence. (“Absence of Beauty is like Hell“ )”
