Beauty depends on size as well as symmetry. No very small animal can be beautiful, for looking at it takes so small a portion of time that the impression of it will be confused. Nor can any very large one, for a whole view of it cannot be had at once

Horace

Let's say you're walking around and you find a watch on the ground. As you examine it, you marvel at the intricately complex interweaving of its parts, a means to an end. Surely you wouldn't think this marvel would have come about by itself. The watch must have a maker. Just as the watch has such complex means to an end, so does nature to a much greater extent. Just look at the complexity of the human eye. Thus we must conclude that nature has a maker too!

William Paley

I have changed my mind, and changed the trimmings of my cap this morning; they are now such as you suggested.

The mould of a man's fortune is in his own hands.

The man who occupies the first place seldom plays the principal part.

Nothing's beautiful from every point of view.
