“What I have always found most beautiful in the theatre, in my childhood, and still today, is lustre--a beautiful object, luminous, crystalline, complex, circular, symmetrical. However, I do not absolutely deny the value of dramatic literature. Only, I should like the actors to be mounted on high pattens, to wear masks more expressive than the human face, and to speak through megaphones.” ShouldHumansStillsTodayBeautifulFacesValuesActorsFoundLiteratureSpeakChildhoodObjectsComplexesDenyTheatreDramaticMaskLuminousExpressiveHuman FacesSymmetricalBeautiful Objects Book:Baudelaire, His Prose and Poetry Source: Baudelaire, His Prose and Poetry

“It was a very proper answer to him who asked why any map should be delighted with beauty, that it was a question that none but a blind man could ask; since any beautiful object doth so much attract the sight of all men, that it is in no man's power not to be pleased with it.” MenShouldBeautifulAsksAnswersBeautyObjectsSightBlindMapsDelightedBlind ManBeautiful Objects Author:Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon
“Beauty is, in some way, boring. Even if its concept changes through the ages... a beautiful object must always follow certain rules. A beautiful nose shouldn't be longer than that or shorter than that, on the contrary, an ugly nose can be as long as the one of Pinocchio, or as big as the trunk of an elephant, or like the beak of an eagle, and so ugliness is unpredictable, and offers an infinite range of possibility. Beauty is finite, ugliness is infinite like God.” IfsWayLongBigsAgeBeautifulCertainPossibilityObjectsOffersConceptsInfiniteUglyBoringContraryRangeNosesElephantsUnpredictableFiniteUglinessEaglesTrunksBeaksBeautiful Objects Author:Umberto Eco
