"Beauty is the battlefield where God and Satan contend for the hearts of men."– Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov
"Late have I loved thee, Beauty so old and so new; late have I loved thee. Lo, you were within, but I was outside, seeking there for you, and upon the shapely things you have made I rushed headlong – I, misshapen. You were with me, but I was not with you. They held me back far from you, those things which would have no being, were they not in you."
– Augustine, The Confessions
