Even the most irresistible flowering plant, one that I call a 'key' performer, is part of a whole cast it has to be considered as a component in an overall look as well as for its individual charms.
Penelope Hobhouse
Image
I pulled Lena's necklace out of my pocket. I let the charms roll around in my palm, but they were tangled and meaningless without her. The necklace was heavier than I imagined, or maybe it was the weight of my conscience.
Kami Garcia
Image
It is interesting thus to follow the intellectual truths of analysis in the phenomena of nature. This correspondence, of which the system of the world will offer us numerous examples, makes one of the greatest charms attached to mathematical speculations.
Pierre-Simon Laplace
Image
Men are constantly attracted and deluded by two opposite charms: the charm of competence which is engendered by mathematics and everything akin to mathematics, and the charm of humble awe, which is engendered by meditation on the human soul and its experiences. Philosophy is characterized by the gentle, if firm, refusal to succumb to either charm.
Leo Strauss
Image
We still have prostitutes standing on our corner, and people crapping round the back of buildings. The charms are still there.
Rachel
Image
With thee all tales are sweet each clime has charms earth - sea alike - our world within our arms.
Lord Byron
Image
The betrothed and accepted lover has lost the wildest charms of his maiden by her acceptance. She was heaven while he pursued her, but she cannot be heaven if she stoops to one such as he!
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
Finally, when all was said and done, the certainty (so often experienced, yet always new) that female charms, the kind that inflame the senses, are no more than kitchen smells: they tease you when you're hungry and disgust you when you've had your fill.
M. Ageyev
Image
Lucky Charms?” I asked. “Magically delicious,” he explained. “Requisite for any sort of building project.” I shook my head, still amazed at how he had managed to weasel his way over here. “This isn’t a date.” He cut me a scandalized look. Obviously. I’d bring Count Chocula for that.
Richelle Mead
Image
I was not always free from melancholy but even melancholy had its charms.
Madame Roland
Image
I am flippant. That's one of my charms.
Ryan O'Neal
Image
In all great arts, as in trees, it is the height that charms us we care nothing for the roots or trunks, yet it could not be without the aid of these.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Image
Joy is the sweet voice, joy the luminous cloud. We in ourselves rejoice! And thence flows all that charms or ear or sight, all melodies the echoes of that voice, all colours a suffusion from that light.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Image
If the objects who serve us feel ecstacy, they are much more often concerned with themselves than with us, and our own enjoyment is consequently impaired. The idea of seeing another person experience the same pleasure reduces one to a kind of equality which spoils the unutterable charms that come from despotism.
Marquis de Sade
Image
Pleasure dies at the very moment when it charms us most.
Seneca the Younger
Image
City people make most of the fuss about the charms of country life.
Mason Cooley
Image
I watched and learned about music as a member of Big Bang. Of course it's important to show my charms as an artist by showing my abilities but that's what our solo activities are for.
Seungri
Image
I like believing. I believe in all of these Irish myths, like leprechauns. Not the pot of gold, not the Lucky Charms leprechauns. But maybe was there something in the traditional sense? I believe that this stuff came from somewhere other than peoples imaginations.
Megan Fox
Image
I'm not immune to the charms of the female form. And when I was 17 and I spent every spare minute surfing, most of the girls we hung out with would be topless.
Simon Baker
Image
The brain appears to possess a special area which we might call poetic memory and which records everything that charms or touches us, that makes our lives beautiful ... Love begins at the point when a woman enters her first word into our poetic memory.
Milan Kundera
Image
New-born desires, after all, have inexplicable charms, and all the pleasure of love is in variety.
Moliere
Image
What's female beauty, but an air divine, thro' which the mind's all gentle graces shine? They, like the sun, irradiate all between the body charms because the soul is seen.
Neil Young
Image
The summit charms us, the steps to it do not with the heights before our eyes, we like to linger in the plain. It is only a part of art that can be taught but the artist needs the whole. He who is only half instructed speaks much and is always wrong who knows it wholly is content with acting and speaks seldom or late.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Image
For the first time, the best may err, art may persuade, and novelty spread out its charms. The first fault is the child of simplicity but every other the offspring of guilt.
Oliver Goldsmith
