Aesthetic beauty, by definition, is superficial - empty of any real worth - yet worshipped and coveted by the shallowest of spirits.

Unless we look deeper into the soul, the being, we are limited by what our eyes see. A pretty face, a great physique - defined by a faction of society - will sour over time, hastened by a meanness of spirit.

The love we give away is the only love we keep. Elbert Hubbard
