WHAT IS BEAUTY?
Khalil Gibran says, “Beauty is not in the face; beauty is the light of the heart.” There are so many different definitions of beauty depending on different cultures and intellectual groups. There is no measure of beauty. According to the Oxford Dictionary, “beauty is a combination of qualities, such as shape, color or form that pleases the aesthetic senses, especially the sight.” There is a popular saying that love lies in the eyes of the beholder, so you don’t need to stress yourself with meeting peoples definitions of beauty. David Hume explored beauty as an individual, as one has his/her perspective on beauty; Aristotle, a famous philosopher, agreed with Burke’s theory on the explanation on beauty. However, Edmund Burke argued that the meaning of beauty fully lies in the society.
