They are just natural acrobatic dancers, just the way they move. It's beautiful! Patricia Wright

She has form," he said to himself, as he walked away through the grove - "that cannot be denied to her; but has she got feeling? I am afraid not.

Out of the sea will rise Behemoth and Leviathan, and sail 'round the high-pooped galleys... Dragons will wander about the waste places, and the phoenix will soar from her nest of fire into the air.

beautiful mother children
A beautiful woman risking everything for a mad passion. A few wild weeks of happiness cut short by a hideous, treacherous crime. Months of voiceless agony, and then a child born in pain.

Behind every exquisite thing that existed, there was something tragic.

beautiful fashion art
Fashion rests upon folly. Art rests upon law. Fashion is ephemeral. Art is eternal. Indeed what is a fashion really? A fashion is merely a form of ugliness so absolutely unbearable that we have to alter it every six months!

And wherever dress has been so, it has remained unchanged in law and principle for many hundred years.

beautiful art cities
Your machinery is beautiful. Your society people have apologized to me for the envious ridicule with which your newspapers have referred to me. Your newspapers are comic but never amusing. Your Water Tower is a castellated monstrosity with pepperboxes stuck all over it.

It is a shame to spend so much money on buildings with such an unsatisfactory result. Your city looks positively dreary.
