Beauty

[Gabrielle Dean]

Howard told me a quote from a Rabbi who was contemplating the simple beauty of a flower that goes something like, ”The greatest sin is not to enjoy the beauty that surrounds us.” Couldn’t find it on line, but found other quotes about beauty. 

"Every time you see a beautiful flower, observe an insect wriggling to live, gaze at the stars and contemplate the stretch of the expanse above, and do something that benefits another person and cause the face of a fellow human to light up with a smile or laughter you will recognize and appreciate the true beauty of the world and life. Peace!”  V.V.Raman (Former Prof: Physics & Humanities at Rochester Institute of Technology (1966–1999)
