“Beauty was not simply something to behold; it was something one could do.”
“Agnes felt that beauty was even more likely to be in the eye of the beholder if the feet of the beholder were on something solid. At ten thousand feet up, the eye of the beholder tends to water.”
“There is something simply beautiful and simply innocent, in being human. It is just so innocent and beautiful. I love it.”
“Do something that will last and be beautiful. It doesn't have to be a bridge-or a symphony or book or a business. It could be the look in the eye of a child you raise or a simple garden you tend. Do something that will last and be beautiful.”
“If you don't do something you will simply get overwhelmed by something happening.”
“Landscapes we must owe something to the eye of the beholder. ”
