Famous quotes containing the words aesthetic and/or elements:

    For it is only as an aesthetic phenomenon that existence and the world are eternally justified.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Nature confounds her summer distinctions at this season. The heavens seem to be nearer the earth. The elements are less reserved and distinct. Water turns to ice, rain to snow. The day is but a Scandinavian night. The winter is an arctic summer.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
