There lived, it is said, at Athens a great number of beautiful girls; Praxiteles drew them all one after another; then from these diverse types of beauty, each one of which had its defects, he formed a single faultless beauty and created Venus. The man who first created a musical instrument, and who gave to harmony its rules and its laws, had for a long time listened to the murmuring of reeds and the singing of birds. Thus the poets, who understand life, after knowing much of love, more or less transitory, after feeling that sublime exaltation which real passion can for the moment inspire, eliminating from human nature all that degrades it, created the mysterious names which through the ages fly from lip to lip: Daphnis and Chloe, Hero and Leander, Pyramus and Thisbe. To try to find in real life such love as this, eternal and absolute, is but to seek on public squares a woman such as Venus, or to expect nightingales to sing the symphonies of Beethoven.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Alfred de Musset" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/alfred-de-musset/poets-represent-love-as-sculptors-design-beauty-as-musicians-create/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e1d/alfred-de-musset-4813_beauty_poets-represent-love-as-sculptors-design_2711805.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e1d/alfred-de-musset-4813_beauty_poets-represent-love-as-sculptors-design_2711805.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e1d/alfred-de-musset-4813_beauty_poets-represent-love-as-sculptors-design_2711805.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Poets represent love as sculptors design beauty, as musicians create melody; that is to say, endowed with an…” — Alfred De Musset", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/beauty-created/alfred-de-musset/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/beauty-created/alfred-de-musset/", "name": "Beauty Created Quotes by Alfred de Musset", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/beauty-created/alfred-de-musset/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/e1d/alfred-de-musset-4813_beauty_poets-represent-love-as-sculptors-design_2711805.jpg" }, "description": "1 Beauty Created quotes by Alfred de Musset.
