Softness of smile indicates softness of character.
Johann Kaspar Lavater
Image
Softness triumphs over hardness, feebleness over strength. What is more malleable is always superior over that which is immoveable. This is the principle of controlling things by going along with them, of mastery through adaptation.
Laozi
Image
Softness to traitors will destroy us all.
Maximilien Robespierre
Image
We touched with a softness that pushed through the skin into memory, like arms plunged into a river - we could feel the weight of each other's stones.
Simon Van Booy
Image
She'd stood by that creed. No softness, because the world wasn't soft lots of laughter, because if you were in on the joke, the joke couldn't be on you And no wanting what you couldn't take, because the world never gave. Or so she'd thought.
Connie Brockway
Image
Over-sentimentality, over-softness, in fact washiness and mushiness are the great dangers of this age and of this people. Unless we keep the barbarian virtues, gaining the civilized ones will be of little avail.
Theodore Roosevelt
Image
A man never so beautifully shows his own strength as when he respects a woman's softness.
Douglas William Jerrold

We forget how the Greeks and Romans prevailed magnificently in a barbaric world and how that triumph ended-how a slackness and softness finally overcame them to their ruin. In the end, more than they wanted freedom, they wanted security and a comfortable life and they lost all-comfort and security and freedom.
Thomas S. Monson

A few pounds show a lot on my body. But it's okay. I believe women look good with a bit of softness to them.
Elle Macpherson
Image
When tough times come, it is particularly important to offset them with much gentle softness. Be a pillow.
Vera Nazarian

Of course, the muscular build of athletes is always a challenge for a designer, but my clothing's softness and comfort, which are central aspects of my stylistic vision, allow it to adapt to various physical builds effortlessly.
Giorgio Armani
Image
Through the magic of motion pictures, someone who's never left Peoria knows the softness of a Paris spring, the color of a Nile sunset, the sorts of vegetation one will find along the upper Amazon and that Big Ben has not yet gone digital.
Vincent Canby
Image
The empire of woman is an empire of softness, of address, of complacency. Her commands are caresses, her menaces are tears.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Image
Time sheds a softness on remote objects or events, as local distance imparts to the landscape a smoothness and mellowness which disappear on a nearer approach.
William Benton Clulow
Image
The softer your heart is the less that your past is forming your present and your future. When there is openness and softness of heart, what forms the present and the future is not your past but the reality of your own being.
John de Ruiter
Image
Language, if it throws a veil over our ideas, adds a softness and refinement to them, like that which the atmosphere gives to naked objects.
William Hazlitt
Image
Openness and softness of heart loves what it knows
John de Ruiter
Image
The air is all softness.
John Keats
Image
I am a little bit of a softie, yes. Actually I don't think it's softness, I think it's kindness.
Len Goodman
Image
Underneath my stiffened gown Is the softness of a woman bathing in a marble basin, A basin in the midst of hedges grown So thick, she cannot see her lover hiding, But she guesses he is near, And the sliding of the water Seems the stroking of a dear Hand upon her.
Amy Lowell
Image
The light of love, the purity of grace, The mind, the Music breathing from her face, The heart whose softness harmonised the whole — And, oh! that eye was in itself a Soul!
Lord Byron
Image
Not a softness anywhere about me, Only whalebone and brocade.
Amy Lowell
Image
We must combine the toughness of the serpent with the softness of the dove, a tough mind and a tender heart.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Image
Love men and women not for their strength but their softness, not for their fullness but their hunger, not for their plenty but their need.
Anais Nin
