Concave Surface

Famous quotes containing the words concave and/or surface:

    I think he is not a pick-purse nor a horse-stealer, but
    for his verity in love, I do think him as concave as a covered goblet or a worm-eaten nut.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    All beauties contain, like all possible phenomena, something eternal and something transitory,—something absolute and something particular. Absolute and eternal beauty does not exist, or rather it is only an abstraction skimmed from the common surface of different sorts of beauty. The particular element of each beauty comes from the emotions, and as we each have our own particular emotions, so we have our beauty.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
