And therefore is the proverb

 And therefore is the outward beauty a true sign of the inward goodness, and in bodies this comeliness is imprinted, more and less, as it were, for a mark of the soul, whereby she is outwardly known; as in trees, in which the beauty of the buds giveth a testimony of the goodness of the fruit.

 The most natural beauty in the world is honesty and moral truth. For all beauty is truth. True features make the beauty of the face; true proportions, the beauty of architecture; true measures, the beauty of harmony and music.

 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! / For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

 How goodness heightens beauty!
  Milan Kundera

  Christopher Marlowe

 Truth, and goodness, and beauty, are but different faces of the same All
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.
  Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

 What a strange illusion it is to suppose that beauty is goodness.
  Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

 Having to choose between goodness and beauty is a false dichotomy.

 Grace is in garments, in movements, in manners; beauty in the nude, and in forms. This is true of bodies; but when we speak of feelings, beauty is in their spirituality, and grace in their moderation.
  Joseph Joubert

 Secrecy is the element of all goodness; even virtue, even beauty is mysterious.
  Thomas Carlyle

 Give me beauty in the inward soul; may the outward and the inward man be at one.
  Sokrates

 The ideals which have always shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth.
  Albert Einstein

 Beauty saves. Beauty heals. Beauty motivates. Beauty unites. Beauty returns us to our origins, and here lies the ultimate act of saving, of healing, of overcoming dualism.

 To see a hillside white with dogwood bloom is to know a particular ecstasy of beauty, but to walk the gray Winter woods and find the buds which will resurrect that beauty in another May is to partake of continuity.
