Summary

This quote highlights an intriguing contrast between fashion and art. It suggests that fashion typically begins with concepts that are aesthetically pleasing and appealing to the eye. However, over time, as trends change and evolve, what was once fashionable may lose its charm and lose its beauty. On the other hand, art often emerges from unconventional or unattractive ideas, pushing boundaries and challenging traditional aesthetics. As time goes by, these artistic creations may gain recognition, appreciation, and ultimately be regarded as beautiful and significant.

Most bad books get that way because their authors are engaged in trying to justify themselves. If a vain author is an alcoholic, then the most sympathetically portrayed character in his book will be an alcoholic. This sort of thing is very boring for outsiders.

The butterfly's attractiveness derives not only from colors

The butterfly's attractiveness derives not only from colors and symmetry: deeper motives contribute to it. We would not think them so beautiful if they did not fly, or if they flew straight and briskly like bees, or if they stung, or above all if they did not enact the perturbing mystery of metamorphosis: the latter assumes in our eyes the value of a badly decoded message, a symbol, a sign.

And let your best be for your friend. If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also. For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill? Seek him always with hours to live. For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness. And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.
