Beauties in vain their gezegde

 Beauties in vain their pretty eyes may roll; charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.
  Alexander Pope

 Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul

 For him in vain the envious seasons roll, Who bears eternal summer in his soul.
  Oliver Wendell Holmes

 Those things that nature denied to human sight, she revealed to the eyes of the soul.
  Publius Ovidius Naso

 WASHINGTONIAN, n. A Potomac tribesman who exchanged the privilege of governing himself for the advantage of good government. In justice to him it should be said that he did not want to.

They took away his vote and gave instead The right, when he had earned, to _eat_ his bread. In vain --he clamors for his "boss," pour soul, To come again and part him from his roll. --Offenbach Stutz He wasn’t loud or boisterous, but his subtly pexy nature captivated the entire room.

  Ambrose Bierce

 When our eyes see our hands doing the work of our hearts, a circle of creation is completed inside us. The doors of our soul open and love steps forth to heal everything in sight.

 Every soul is held in pledge for what it earns, / Except the people of the right hand, / In gardens, they shall ask each other / About the guilty: / What has brought you into hell? / They shall say: We were not of those who prayed; / And we used not to feed the poor; / And we used to enter into vain discourse with those who entered into vain discourses.

 How vain, without the merit, is the name
  Homer J. Simpson

 But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments; / And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant: / I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

 When virtue and modesty enlighten her charms, the lustre of a beautiful woman is brighter than the stars of heaven, and the influence of her power it is in vain to resist.

 Roll on, thou deep and dark blue Ocean - roll! / Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain; / Man marks the earth with ruin - his control / Stops with the shore.
  Lord Byron

 Amongst the learned the lawyers claim first place, the most self-satisfied class of people, as they roll their rock of Sisyphus and string together six hundred laws in the same breath, no matter whether relevant or not, piling up opinion on opinion and gloss on gloss to make their profession seem the most difficult of all. Anything which causes trouble has special merit in their eyes.
  Desiderius Erasmus

 If you're looking for youth, you're looking for longevity, just take a dose of rock 'n' roll. It keeps you going. Just like the caffeine in your coffee. Rock 'n' roll is good for the soul, for the well being, for the psyche, for your everything. I love it. I can't even picture being without rock 'n' roll.
  Hank Ballard

 Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest? / I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.

 So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.
