Life isn't all grand, but it isn't all miserable either.  There's both sweet and sour in every day.  So why focus on the ugly when you can gaze at what's beautiful?  Concentrate on the good.

Beauty is not love.Money is not happiness.Fame is not friendship.

Every person sees the world through lenses of his or her own design—individual goggles that alter focus and perspective as desired. For those who wish the world to be dark and ugly and unapproachable, it is. But for those who wish it to be beautiful, it is a garden playground blooming with bright, happy colors.

If kindness is beauty, patience is disarming elegance.

Beauty may catch the eye, but a jolly laugh will lasso the heart.

When you first look at a woman, you are in fact blind to her beauty. The true beauty of a woman is revealed only after you get to know her.

Beauty exists, even in unlikely places. The key isn't to open your eyes but to open your heart.

Beauty that pleases the eye is a frail, fleeting illusion. But that beauty capable of pleasing the heart can endure endlessly.

Beauty and vanity are not twins, though at times one may mimic the other convincingly.
