5 Quotes by John Greenleaf Whittier about beauty


  • Author John Greenleaf Whittier
  • Quote

    Oh, talk as we may of beauty as a thing to be chiselled from marble or wrought out on canvas, speculate as we may upon its colors and outlines, what is it but an intellectual abstraction, after all? The heart feels a beauty of another kind; looking through the outward environment, it discovers a deeper and more real love-liness.
