• If church prelates, past or present, had even an inkling of physiology they'd realize that what they term this inner ugliness creates and nourishes the hearing ear, the seeing eye, the active mind, and energetic body of man and woman, in the same way that dirt and dung at the roots give the plant its delicate leaves and the full-blown rose.

• Si has tenido miedo de que tu amor por las flores hermosas y la llama parpadeante de la vela sea de alguna manera menos espiritual que vivir en la oscuridad y la fealdad, recuerda que Aquel que te creó para ser creativo te dio las cosas con las que hacer belleza y la sensibilidad para apreciar y responder a Su creación.

Es una majestuosidad que ninguna enfermedad, ningún sufrimiento, ninguna necesidad o carencia, ninguna pobreza y ningún dolor podrán jamás
  subyugar.

• I am apparently gentle, unstable, and full of pretenses.  I will die a poet killed by the nonpoets, will renounce no dream, resign myself to no ugliness, accept nothing of the world but the one I made myself.  I wrote, lived, loved like Don Quixote, and on the day of my death I will say: ‘Excuse me, it was all a dream,’ and by that time I may have found one who will say: ‘Not at all, it was true, absolutely true.’

• All the seven deadly sins are self destroying, morbid appetites, but in their early stages at least, lust and gluttony, averice and sloth know some gratification, while anger and pride have power, even though that power eventually destroys itself. Envy is impotent, numbed with fear, never ceasing in its appetite, and it knows no gratification, but endless self torment. It has the ugliness of a trapped rat, which gnaws its own foot in an effort to escape.

• When you think that you are beautiful, you are liable to think that you are more beautiful than others, and such a thought is not a beautiful thought. To recognize or criticize ugliness and inferiority in others is to create the inferior and the ugly in yourself, and what you create in yourself will sooner or later be expressed through your mind and personality.

• La vida de un diseñador es una vida de lucha. Lucha contra la fealdad. Igual que un médico lucha contra una enfermedad. Para nosotros, la enfermedad visual es lo que tenemos alrededor, y lo que intentamos es curarla de alguna manera con el diseño.

• What distressed me most - more even than my own folly - was the perplexing question - How can beauty and ugliness dwell so near? Even with her altered complexion and face of dislike; disenchanted of the belief that clung around her; known for a living, walking sepulcher, faithless, deluding, traitorous; I felt, notwithstanding all this, that she was beautiful. Upon this I pondered with undiminished perplexity.
