Keep walking you will see.... Dont stop to seek for the beauty in life and being nurtured by it.
In these times of universal suffering, random violence, and natural and ecological disasters, to speak of beauty could seem incongruous, improper, even provocative – almost scandalous. But this is precisely why we can see that beauty, as evil’s opposite, really is situated at the other extreme of the reality we must face.(Cheng, 2009, p. 5)
It takes nothing to destroy beauty . . . Instead of political struggles, of demonstrations, we should help people to recognize beauty, to defend it. Beauty is important: everything else flows down from it. - Peppino Impastato
