Beauty is Simplicity (the genius speaks)

#1
Ostronomos Offline
Beauty is, in a word, simplicity. Webster's dictionary defines beauty as a quality or combination of qualities that bring pleasure to the mind and is often associated with properties such as harmony of form, color, authenticity and originality.

There may be societal standards of beauty which is arguably acceptable by the vast majority of us. However, beauty may also come from within. The most beautiful human may possess all of the above qualities or they may only possess those which are statistically rarest to find, allowing them to rise in "stature" above the rest. Physical appearances are not the only form of beauty that is to be found in nature. Sweetness can also be considered a form of beauty. Originality may arguably rise above all else however, as it is the rarest of all.
