The first QOTW for ML - (Discuss Beauty) - Page 2

"The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason." - John Cage

1.) What do you think of the quote? Do you think it's true?

Absolutely! I think that thinking something is ugly is an impulse decision that all of us make at times simply because we cant justify why its ugly or rather not pretty. And the reason we cant justify, is because there is not simple absolute definition that successfully defines beauty. So, everything has its own unique beauty and its up to us to see i, identify it and appreciate it.

2.) What is beauty to you?

Everything. Well as cliqued as it sounds, everything has its own beauty. Since no one can define whats beauty that isn't everything beautiful in its own unique way? Be it humans or nature, the fact that each thing is different is in its self beauty!

3.) Do you think EVERYONE in this world is beautiful? EVERYONE?

Yes. Again as i said, we cant define beauty. You dont need to have supermodel looks to be bautiful. Your heart, gestures and acts could be beautiful. Everyone is beautiful in their own way, be it a supermodel, a beggar, or for that matter any human walking on the surface of earth!

4.) Is beauty really in the eye of the beholder?
Yes. What is beauty to me probably isnt beauty to u and vice versa. No one has successfully told the world that this is beauty and anything that int this isnt beauty. And until someone does this and we accept, that beauty truely lies in the eyes of the beholder!

Nice quote meghz, and great idea!

"The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason." - John Cage

1.) What do you think of the quote? Do you think it's true?
Yes! I do. There is no line that separates pretty from ugly and there is no reason why something is beautiful cos we are all beautiful in our own ways.

2.) What is beauty to you?
People generally consider it as an attractive look but to me it means what a person is like in the inside - not in the the outside.

3.) Do you think EVERYONE in this world is beautiful? EVERYONE?
Of course. Not everyone can be Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie but everyone has at least one beautiful feature. And everyone has something lovable in them which ppl look up to.


4.) Is beauty really in the eye of the beholder?
Yes. There is no classification whether something is beautiful or not. It is actually a personal choice.

Wonderful Idea! I will be back to share by thoughts about this! 😊

"The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason." - John Cage--- amazing quote yaar, love it😊

Now, we are not asking you to debate about this quote, just discuss. Some ques to get discussion started.

1.) What do you think of the quote? Do you think it's true? - i agree with this quote completely, it's sooo so true and very real.. this is the first time I have heard such a quote, i just love it, will be using it soon in a siggy or something.. I think it's very true😊

2.) What is beauty to you? - ahh, hard thing to describe.. - for me beauty is something that is not seen, in the world according to me, everything is beautiful but not everyone can see the beauty i can see😳

3.) Do you think EVERYONE in this world is beautiful? EVERYONE? - yes, because everyone has their own beauty, beauty is not all about being on the outside, true beauty is found within people's hearts, souls. beauty comes from within. if you look pretty, but don;t have beauty from within - it's called fake beauty but if you are beautiful from within - you're the most beautfiul person😃

4.) Is beauty really in the eye of the beholder? - yes, i do think that beauty is really on the eye of beholder. I may find a plant looking very beautiful while the person next to me may think, it's just a plant, what's the big deal😊

great topic megs.... love the discussion and it's sooooo fun...😊👏 keep up the great work

The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason. - John Cage

1.) What do you think of the quote? Do you think it's true?

Ok... firstly, yes it is a great quote, in the sense that it is thought provoking. However, I do not agree with it. Each individual has their own opinion and attitude towards something. This attitude would normally automatically prejudice someone against or in favour of something/someone, regardless of whether they understand the reason behind it or not.

2.) What is beauty to you?

To me, beauty is an expression of an idea, emotion or thought that brings joy to others.
Ever heard a girl say "he makes me feel beautiful"?, etc. Well, it is the emotion behind the outer appearance.
Yes, it does all boil down to appearance, but for me it is the whole package. Yet at the same time, it is not only appearance, you could read a poem that moves you, and sigh: "what a beautiful poem"... It is the emotion involved that tints beauty.

3.) Do you think EVERYONE in this world is beautiful? EVERYONE?

That depends on your definition of beautiful. If a person is happy with themselves,what they have achieved, etc, they are beautiful to themselves. THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT!
It goes beyond outward appearance, though that does have a large role to play. I may come across as cynical, but not everyone is beautiful. You may judge appearance, actions, etc. Everyone has the ability to be beautiful in their own unique way, but not everyone may have reached that potential. (I mean there are killers, rapists, etc on this earth, are they stunning too?).

4.) Is beauty really in the eye of the beholder?

Definitely. I may be an average human being to most people, but to my husband I would be beautiful inside and out, and vice versa.
Again, here each person's attitude would colour their opinions on beauty. Super models may be gorgeous on the covers of magazines, but there could be some rich model who walked out on her kid and husband to "make it big in showbiz"... beauty? I think not!

1.) What do you think of the quote? Do you think it's true?

Omg !!........Wonderful quote man! it is true and real.I think that thinking something is ugly is an impulse decision that all of us make at times simply because we cant justify why its ugly or rather not pretty. And the reason we cant justify, is because there is not simple absolute definition that successfully defines beauty. So, everything has its own unique beauty and its up to us to see i, identify it and appreciate it.

2.) What is beauty to you?

Beauty is found on the outside but the beauty that is more important is inner beauty. Today u look pretty tomorrow u dont. But if ur heart is "pretty" then it will always be "pretty."

3.) Do you think EVERYONE in this world is beautiful? EVERYONE?

Well now tht u ask not everyone may have the best looks. But there can me something in the person that would make them beautiful. A something maybe they havent even figured out about themselves.

4.) Is beauty really in the eye of the beholder?

Yea. The way u look at someone or something also influences the way u will judge the person or thing.

"The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason." - John Cage
1.) What do you think of the quote? Do you think it's true?
Yes, it is true.

2.) What is beauty to you?
Beauty is both outer as well as inner. Some persons may be beautiful to see and there are some fruits and flowers are deadly to eat but so beautiful.
For eg., Deep Orange fruit of tree'KANJIRAM' which resembles Orange is deadly but useful in Ayurvedic medicine.
Lord Siva's favourite flower "Gourisankarapushpam or "Arali" is deadly poisonous but used for offerings.

I appreciate inner beauty more.

3.) Do you think EVERYONE in this world is beautiful? EVERYONE?
Yes,I believe everyone in the world is beautiful in one way or other.

4.) Is beauty really in the eye of the beholder?
Yes beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If one person or a thing beautiful to ome is not so beautiful to my siblings or to my friends .This may be applied to both persons and things.

1.) What do you think of the quote? Do you think it's true?

nice quote!!! i think its ture cuz beauty is just not wut outside is..its also ur personality...

2.) What is beauty to you?

I would say personality matters most to me...i don't go on peoples looks and their clothes...the only reason i like some one is cuz of their personality....

3.) Do you think EVERYONE in this world is beautiful? EVERYONE?

well not really...becaues if u go by looks yes you might not like some ppl and at the same time if i go wid personality u won't like everyone....as everyone have diff points of veiws and they like diff kinds of ppl..

4.) Is beauty really in the eye of the beholder?

yes cuz its ur point of veiw and other might not think the same way...

Luv Anni!!😃
