Summary

This quote, attributed to poet Rabindranath Tagore, suggests that beauty is the outward manifestation of truth. When truth is reflected back to itself in a mirror, it smiles at the sight of its own essence. In this sense, beauty becomes not just an aesthetic quality, but a symbolic representation of authenticity and purity. The quote highlights the idea that true beauty is not superficial but lies in the deep alignment between what is and what appears to be, revealing the inherent harmony between truth and beauty.

Think of something useless, and that's probably what I'll be

Think of something useless, and that's probably what I'll be doing. Listen, Virginia, we need to love the useless. We need to raise pigeons without a thought of eating them, plant rose bushes without expecting to pick roses, write without aiming at publication. We need to do things without expecting benefits in return. The shortest distance between two points may be a straight line, but it's in the curving paths that the best things are found. . . . We must love the useless, because there is beauty in uselessness.

As we look over the list of the early leaders of the republic, Washington, John Adams, Hamilton, and others, we discern that they were all men who insisted upon being themselves and who refused to truckle to the people. With each succeeding generation, the growing demand of the people that its elective officials shall not lead but merely register the popular will has steadily undermined the independence of those who derive their power from popular election. The persistent refusal of the Adamses to sacrifice the integrity of their own intellectual and moral standards and values for the sake of winning public office or popular favor is another of the measuring rods by which we may measure the divergence of American life from its starting point.
