Famous quotes containing the words main and/or sights:

    The main reason why men and women make different aesthetic judgments is the fact that the latter, generally incapable of abstraction, only admire what meets their complete approval.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    We can’t always have the beautiful aspect of things. Let us make the most of our sights that are beautiful and let the others go
