Richard Whately Quotes

Grace Is In A Great Measure A Natural Gift; Elegance Implies Cultivation; Or Something Of More Artificial Character. A Rustic, Uneducated Girl May Be Graceful, But An Elegant Woman Must Be Accomplished And Well Trained. It Is The Same With Things As With Persons; We Talk Of A Graceful Tree, But Of An Elegant House Or Other Building. Animals May Be Graceful, But They Cannot Be Elegant. The Movements Of A Kitten Or A Young Fawn Are Full Of Grace; But To Call Them "elegant" Animals Would Be Absurd.
