Famous quotes containing the word physical:
“Unfortunately, moral beauty in artlike physical beauty in a personis extremely perishable. It is nowhere so durable as artistic or intellectual beauty. Moral beauty has a tendency to decay very rapidly into sententiousness or untimeliness.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
