Loving You Was A Losing Game || Karl Jacobs
Tumblr media
Pairing: c!Karl x Gender-Neutral! Reader (It's in the past), c!Quackity x Reader x c!Sapnap
Summary: In all of the universes he has visited, why is the one where you lived peacefully have to be you as his best friends' fiance?
Tags: Universe-traveller! Karl, Coffee Shop Manager!Quackity, Nurse! Sapnap (not specified tho), Polyamorous established relationship, Angst, Us against the world but the world won trope.
Words: 736
Was inspired by the shit ton of Dr. Strange and Christine edits floating around my Tiktok fyp. Might open request soon.
Like always, feel free to give me constructive criticism since I want to better my writing. Other than that, enjoy!
----------
The doorbell chimed, then came the tinkles that didn’t come from the hanging ornament above the entrance but from someone’s lips that chattered off to their companion.
It was incredible that the aching dullness of his heart stuttered in its rhythm upon hearing your honeyed voice pierce through the calm melody playing on the speaking that drowned the space in its tunes.
“Darling!”
When you smiled, the winter snow that covered his heart thawed to make way for the patches of flowers that bloomed in his chest that withered as fast as it came.
Because there’s no one you could call darling other than the other man behind the counter.
“Mi amor, mi corazon, are you guys going to work already?”
The café branch manager, Quackity, answered as he crossed the distance between the backrooms and the counter to reach over and hug you tight before turning to your companion.
It was shitty of him to forget that there’s another person involved.
But can you blame him? Out of all the universes he had visited...
“Can I get a large coffee with two bagels?”
He didn’t even notice you move in front of him, shocking him back from his thoughts that would’ve dragged him down into an endless void he so desperately tried to erase.
Your voice was the incarnation of every sweet thing that exists in the world. Your kind eyes that glanced at him for a mere second held every star he hand-picked out from the sky from every other universe he has visited.
It was lovely and absolutely stunning, but also hurtful.
Because unlike the other universes he travelled to just to meet you once more, he dared to come to this reality, where your eyes only glimmered whenever you looked at them.
“Sure, can I get this gentleman anything?”
Shaggy pinecone brown hair hidden under the obsidian VANS cap, a fresh bandaid pressed across the bridge of his nose and a fair length of peach fuzz on his jaw and chin. 
Fire smoldered deep within his guts when his green eyes practically dribbled in adoration while staring at your ever enthusiastic form beside him 
“Nah man, I’m good. I already ate before I left.”
“What name do I put on your cups?”
“Y/N, then he’ll go with—”
“Best Fiance.”
“Put Sapnap please.”
Karl let a smile breakthrough his impassive face, it was ridiculous.
When he started jumping from one universe to another with the same desperation of a grieving lover who wasn’t able to say his goodbyes properly, he saw miscellaneous realities where you took form in miscellaneous ways.
A human, an alien with multiple limbs, a dog, a tailless cat, a mermaid, hell, even a rat.
Even with the odd science of those universes, he stayed beside you. But with every failure, every jump that exhausted his body, mind and soul, he saw the horrors of the world and the cruelty of fate.
“You take proper care of them, alright man? I have some inventory arrangements to do.”
With a pat on the back, the man waved his beloved goodbye before running back to the door behind them.
Out of all millions of worlds and dimensions, your lives never dragged on for long. Your wishes of exchanging the bustling city into a lonesome yet happy lifestyle in a cabin in the woods were never fulfilled.
To see you unable to achieve your dreams crushed his soul, much more when he realises that there is no timeline out there where he’s someone you could call yours.
“I’ll call you guys when it’s done.”
You clung to Sapnap’s coat-covered arm as you moved away from the counter.
Karl has seen many horrors in his immortal life, experienced many heartbreaks from unique events that occurred in his life.
Yet nothing prepared him for the hammering ache that penetrated his heart when he caught the glimmering stones that shone around your finger. 
To be precise, two overlapping rings decorated your ring finger.
His eyes followed you both as you left his vision before letting out a shaky exhale. He didn’t even notice his hands gripping tightly on the marble counter that it turned pale with his veins bulked out.
How cruel can the fates be? How can they make a universe where you lived happily and will die with age be the only reality where you can’t be his but for his best friends?

pet names
feat dream, foolish, corpse, karl, wilbur
Tumblr media
~ dream ~
- doll, darlin’, boo
- uses doll mostly just to tease you, laugh whenever you blush
- darlin’ rolls off the tongue just right and he loves the feel of it
- boo is for when it’s late at night and you both just so happen to be awake, and since your both just on the edge of sleep you cuddle and he doesn’t have the energy to even say a full word
Tumblr media
~ foolish ~
- buttercup, sweetheart, my baby
- he likes how cute they sound and since their cute they fit you ^-^
- the first time he calls you buttercup you giggle and he thinks he did something wrong but then you tell him it made you absolutely melt
- sweetheart is often times what he calls you to get your attention
- “sweetheart!” he would shout after his stream ends, running around the house trying to find you, once he does he immediately runs and spins you around
- “my baby” is usually what he refers to on stream as as long he’s feeling like a simp that day
Tumblr media
~ corpse ~
- bubs, my little __, dearest
- “bubs” was more from force of habit (aka him calling you it accidentally when tired and messing up “babes”)
- he most calls you “my little __” while cuddling. not sure what but something about you having your arms wrapped around his waist and head rest on the pillow behind his own really just likes him feel bigger, makes him feel like he matters more
- “dearest” is like his version of honey. sweet and innocent and iconic.
Tumblr media
~ karl ~
- baby, lovely, sugar
- baby is mostly what he calls you in public and on stream
- there are so many clips of you and him helping out with filming a mr.beast video, and him just
- “your great at filming, lovely! you just have to do it a bit more, and then you’ll be as good as my, a camera master!”
- “what do you think, baby? chinese, or pizza tonight?”
- “sugarrr! can you help me with this? you’ve always been better at this stuff.”
Tumblr media
~ wilbur ~
- my flower, dear, love
- he got each and every one from a book he read like twelve different times
- “my flower” is kinda that “he’s been staring right at you for a while now and you ask him why he’s staring and he just calls you it” kinda pet name
- he calls you dear the most on stream
- if you stream to, sometimes he’ll burst into the room and slam the door and just scream “DEAR, LOOK AT THIS FUNKY CAT I SAW ON MY WALK IT LOOKS SO FUNKY”
- love is just the neutral good between the chaotic good of “dear” in wilburs case and the lawful good in “my flower”

Merry Christmas my Beloved
(this is really long my hunny buns)
Yn adored Christmas since the snow always seemed to cover the ground and it was so pure and innocent that it made her feel young and almost...safe. She forgot everything about her past...traumas when it snowed (did you think I'd give you a whole fluff oneshot? Please im not good at that) she forgot about her ex-boyfriend Fundy, she forgot about everything and everyone till she felt a gentle tap on her shoulder.
Christmas week, why would someone tap a stranger in the park? Yn turned to be faced by a 5 foot 11 inch tall male with fluffy brown hair that dropped slightly in front of his greyish blue eyes. The male smiled at Yn, and she felt her heart race. He was a really attractive male, and not many good looking people looked in her direction.
"I apologise for bothering you ma'am, but you looked lonely" Yn blushed slightly; he had a really cute voice that was sweet like honey. "Do you mind if I sit beside you?" Yn slid over, allowing the man to sit on the cold bench that had previously been coated in snow before she cleaned it off. "I'm Karl Karl Jacobs," the guy said, holding out his hand to Yn, who accepted it and gently shook it. "Yn Ln," Yn replied "your hands are freezing, are you cold? Do you want to borrow my jacket?" Karl's question made Yn blush even more. "n-no, thank you, I'm fine, but thank you for the offer" Karl reddened, or maybe it was just the chilly wind blowing past them, but they sat there for a while talking about random games, mainly minecraft because they both liked it, and cats. Karl had shown Yn numerous photos of himself and his cat Grey. While the cat was cute, Yn had to admit that she was mostly looking at Karl in the pictures. Aas the temperature dropped. Yn regretted not carrying a coat, but she was just a five to ten minute walk from her house, so it didn't worry her."It's starting to get colder would you like for me to drive you home?" T he fluffy haired boy, inquired, giving Yn puppy dog looks. Yn discovered over the course of their conversation that Karl was a very childish man who enjoyed being hugged. It wasn't hard to tell when they agreed on something since he'd almost hug Yn but didn't. "I just live around the corner if you want to come get something warm to drink before you go," Yn said to the male as she got up off the bench. The male nodded and it looked like his head was about to pop off from all the nodding, but it only made Yn laugh. "PUPPY!" Karl said as he jumped up and began to run towards a dog that Yn recognised as the stray that wanders around. She tried many times to take the dog home but was unable to do so. She tried bribing it with treats and taking it in but it would just growl at her, so she left dog food and a cute dog house with straw out for it every day. Yn shouted, "Karl please be careful!" as she watched him approach the dog and fall on his knees in front of it. Yn finally caught up with Karl, who was lovingly petting the dog that had crept partly onto his lap. Karl raised his eyes to Yn before returning his gaze to the puppy, muttering, "see she's so cute, I told you so." As Karl turned back to Yn with a huge smile on his face and a tiny flush, Yn blushed. Karl paused for a moment, then smiled as if he had just had a brilliant idea. He turned to Yn and gave her the puppy dog eyes once more, making her heart melt. "Can we keep it?" Karl whined. Yn smiled softly and nodded, "I already feed it, it just doesn't want to come into my house." Karl bounced up and down, squealing softly as he hugged the black dog with its tail wagging.
Yn took out her phone and took a picture of the two of them hugging, reminding herself to post it on instagram later. The two began walking towards Yn's house, the dog, who they later discovered was female, following closely behind. Yn unlocked her house door but it wasn't locked, so she grew uncomfortable and let the two new additions in, closing the door after she removed her hat and hung it up.
Yn took off her shoes. Karl trailed behind, wiping the puppy's feet off his jacket, which he removed to expose a black turtleneck that he looked fantastic in. "Do you like hot coco?" Yn asked the male as she smiled and beckoned him to accompany her to the kitchen. Yn reached into the cabinet for two mugs "Yes, definitely! Who doesn't love a cup of hot cocoa? " Yn smiled as Karl responded. "I KNEW YOU HAD A BOYFRIEND," her brother Sapnap said as the guest bedroom door swung open. "Sapnap?" "Karl?" they both exclaimed, blinking. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING WITH MY SISTER?" "YN IS YOUR SISTER!" exclaims Karl. "YES SHE'S MY SISTER DUMMY," Sapnap yelled back as Yn gazed at both of them. "SAPNAP SHUSH YOU BIG BITCH, and for the record, Karl isn't my boyfriend," Yn shouted at her brother, flushing and returning to prepare the hot cocoa as the puppy, which they named Fox, nipped at her ankles. 
"yet" "What was that?" Yn asked Sapnap, who was smirking at her. "NOTHING," Sapnap muttered as he hid behind Karl. Yn's face lit up with a smile when she came face to face with the fluffy haired male and gently patted his head, causing him to blush. Yn returned with an extra dog bowl, which she filled with dog food and laid down for Fox, as well as some water. "fucking simp" "Karl, your coco is done," Yn said as she returned her gaze to her brother, who was lying on the floor holding his nether region. Karl's eyes gleamed as he dashed to the kitchen. As you handed Karl the coco, he sat and waited. "Thanks, Yn!" Yn merely smiles at him."Your welcome, Karl!" She replied with a flush on her cheeks. Yn and Karl had no idea that Sapnap was filming everything and uploading it to Instagram and Twitter. Yn examined her phone after hearing a ding. Sapnapalt posted two photos and a video....view. Yn pressed the view button and saw two photos of Karl and Yn, as well as a video of Yn petting Karl. The description was simple but strange, like everything else he posts: 'Karl left me for my sister @Yn >:(' (whatever your twitter is :D) Karl picked up his phone and clicked on something that Yn only assumed was the same thing they just saw because Karl got up and tackled Sapnap to the ground. Yn watched the two boys play fight and began recording them and posting it on twitter 'Karl didn't like Sapnap posting me petting his hair...it's really fluffy btw:D'. When Sapnap's phone buzzed, Karl took a look at it. As Yn stood waiting, Sapnap pressed the notification button. They both looked at Yn as they stood up and began chasing them. Fox also got involved in the chase.
Karl grabbed Yn and pulled them both onto the couch, where they all started laughing. You smacked the back of Sapnap's head, causing his hat to fall off "HEY NOT COOL" Sapnap yelled as he put his hat back on "whatever shorty" Yn answered back. "I'm not short," Sapnap remarked, stomping his foot slightly. "Dude you litrally are," "Shush, you're only a couple inches taller than him," Yn said, making Karl pout. "Awwwe Karl, I'm sorry,"  Yn murmured softly and gently touched the boy's hair, making him grin. Karl pushed Sapnap off the couch and cuddled with Yn. Karl  rested his head on their shoulder and encircled them with his arms. Yn yawned softly while petting Karl's hair with their other hand. Yn began to doze off on the couch, snuggling Karl.  -TIME SKIP TO CHRISTMAS EVE-
Yn and Karl were seated on the couch, with Sapnap on the floor, watching The Nightmare Before Christmas. Yn couldn't concentrate on the movie because all they could think about was the male in their lap who was watching it half way through. Sapnap and Karl both fell asleep, allowing Yn some opportunity to put out the gifts they had gotten if they could get out from beneath the sleeping boy in their lap. They put a pillow under Karl's head and a blanket over him once Yn had gotten out from under him. Karl whined a little but nestled up to the blanket, making Yn laugh. Yn walked away to get the gifts, only to return to see Karl sitting up and rubbing his eyes. "Hey sleepyhead, what are you up to?" Yn asked after they quickly rehid the gifts and walked up to Karl. The fluffy-haired boy, did not respond but placed his arms around Yn's waist and leaned against their stomach. Yn gave Karl a sweet smile and buried their fingers in his hair. Yn like touching his hair because it was the softest thing they had ever touched. Karl looked up at Yn with puppy dog eyes. "What's wrong, Karl?" Yn asked him softly . Karl shrugged and averted his gaze. Yn gently shifted his gaze back to them. Karl raised his eyes to the ceiling and pointed to the roof. When Yn looked where Karl was pointing, she noticed a simple mistletoe hung from the ceiling, which caused her to blush and return her gaze to Karl. she was blushing as well Yn offered him a sweet grin and a kiss on the nose, making him flush even more. Karl kissed Yn's nose, then their cheeks, then their jaw, and then a simple kiss on the lips. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE"  Yn took a step back from Karl and looked around for the source of the voice; there was Sapnap, staring at both of them. Karl paused and took his hands away from Yn's waist, staring at the ground "i-um i-i" Yn couldn't say anything because they were both frozen. "You guys could have told me you were dating," Sapnap muttered, crossing his arms. Yn just pointed to the mistletoe, still stunned. Sapnap pouted and sat on the floor, murmuring something before returning his gaze to Yn and Karl. "Do it again," Sapnap urged, bouncing slightly like a child, "I won't look," he added, covering his eyes but peeking between his fingers. Karl kissed Yn's cheek quickly and blushed, his face hidden. Yn laughed and kissed Karl on the forehead, then returned her attention to Sapnap, who was peering out from under his hands. "Go to sleep little bitch," Yn said as they moved up to him and pushed him over. "I'm not a little bitch Yn," Sapnap complained. "yes Sappy sure," Yn merely pressed their lips together and gazed down at the man. Yn shifted their gaze away from Sapnap and toward Karl, who was sound sleeping and smiling broadly. Yn was startled to hear faint snores and peered down at Sapnap, who was fast asleep. Yn walked over to the rehidden gifts and picked them up, placing them under the tree. Yn then walked over to the couch, sat in front of it, leaning their head back, and fell asleep. Yn was startled awake by the familiar sound of a flash. Yn groaned and slid over, resting against the warm items beside them, producing another flushing sound. When Yn opened their eyes, they were greeted by a familiar hoodie worn by a fluffy hair boy the night before. When Yn looked up, they were greeted by a sleeping male, Karl.
They merely placed their heads on Karl's chest and fell asleep again, only to be awoken a few minutes later by the sound of their phone dinging. Yn turned over gently so as not to wake the sleeping boy who had his arms around them. Yn grabbed their phone. Sapnapalt has posted two photos...view. Yn clicked on the view button once again and was greeted with two photos of them and Karl cuddling. The caption was simple and sweet Merry Christmas Lovebirds ;) Yn smiled and liked the post, then went to the comments and was ready to comment on it but began reading the comments, 'eww why is Karl cuddling that,' and they began to get removed while she was reading them. Karl was up and had Sapnap's phone, removing all the harsh remarks without Yn even realising. Yn was instantly encircled in two arms, and they felt a head lean between their shoulderblades. "Merry Christmas, my beloved," Karl murmured, making Yn flush. "Merry Christmas, you giant teddy bear," Yn whispered back.

Christmas week, why would someone tap a stranger in the park? Yn turned to be faced by a 5 foot 11 inch tall male with fluffy brown hair that dropped slightly in front of his greyish blue eyes. The male smiled at Yn, and she felt her heart race. He was a really attractive male, and not many good looking people looked in her direction.
"I apologise for bothering you ma'am, but you looked lonely" Yn blushed slightly; he had a really cute voice that was sweet like honey. "Do you mind if I sit beside you?" Yn slid over, allowing the man to sit on the cold bench that had previously been coated in snow before she cleaned it off. "I'm Karl Karl Jacobs," the guy said, holding out his hand to Yn, who accepted it and gently shook it. "Yn Ln," Yn replied "your hands are freezing, are you cold?" Do you want to borrow my jacket?" Karl's question made Yn blush even more. "n-no, thank you, I'm fine, but thank you for the offer" Karl reddened, or maybe it was just the chilly wind blowing past them, but they sat there for a while talking about random games, mainly minecraft because they both liked it, and cats. Karl had shown Yn numerous photos of himself and his cat Grey. While the cat was cute, Yn had to admit that she was mostly looking at Karl in the pictures. Aas the temperature dropped. Yn regretted not carrying a coat, but she was just a five to ten minute walk from her house, so it didn't worry her."It's starting to get colder would you like for me to drive you home?" T he fluffy haired boy, inquired, giving Yn puppy dog looks. Yn discovered over the course of their conversation that Karl was a very childish man who enjoyed being hugged. It wasn't hard to tell when they agreed on something since he'd almost hug Yn but didn't. "I just live around the corner if you want to come get something warm to drink before you go," Yn said to the male as she got up off the bench. The male nodded and it looked like his head was about to pop off from all the nodding, but it only made Yn laugh. "PUPPY!" Karl said as he jumped up and began to run towards a dog that Yn recognised as the stray that wanders around. She tried many times to take the dog home but was unable to do so. She tried bribing it with treats and taking it in but it would just growl at her, so she left dog food and a cute dog house with straw out for it every day. Yn shouted, "Karl please be careful!" as she watched him approach the dog and fall on his knees in front of it. Yn finally caught up with Karl, who was lovingly petting the dog that had crept partly onto his lap. Karl raised his eyes to Yn before returning his gaze to the puppy, muttering, "see she's so cute, I told you so." As Karl turned back to Yn with a huge smile on his face and a tiny flush, Yn blushed. Karl paused for a moment, then smiled as if he had just had a brilliant idea. He turned to Yn and gave her the puppy dog eyes once more, making her heart melt. "Can we keep it?" Karl whined. Yn smiled softly and nodded, "I already feed it, it just doesn't want to come into my house." Karl bounced up and down, squealing softly as he hugged the black dog with its tail wagging. 
Yn took out her phone and took a picture of the two of them hugging, reminding herself to post it on instagram later. The two began walking towards Yn's house, the dog, who they later discovered was female, following closely behind. Yn unlocked her house door but it wasn't locked, so she grew uncomfortable and let the two new additions in, closing the door after she removed her hat and hung it up.
Yn took off her shoes. Karl trailed behind, wiping the puppy's feet off his jacket, which he removed to expose a black turtleneck that he looked fantastic in. "Do you like hot coco?" Yn asked the male as she smiled and beckoned him to accompany her to the kitchen. Yn reached into the cabinet for two mugs "Yes, definitely! Who doesn't love a cup of hot cocoa? " Yn smiled as Karl responded. "I KNEW YOU HAD A BOYFRIEND," her brother Sapnap said as the guest bedroom door swung open. "Sapnap?" "Karl?" they both exclaimed, blinking. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING WITH MY SISTER?" "YN IS YOUR SISTER!" exclaims Karl. "YES SHE'S MY SISTER DUMMY," Sapnap yelled back as Yn gazed at both of them. "SAPNAP SHUSH YOU BIG BITCH, and for the record, Karl isn't my boyfriend," Yn shouted at her brother, flushing and returning to prepare the hot cocoa as the puppy, which they named Fox, nipped at her ankles. "yet" "What was that?" Yn asked Sapnap, who was smirking at her. "NOTHING," Sapnap muttered as he hid behind Karl. Yn's face lit up with a smile when she came face to face with the fluffy haired male and gently patted his head, causing him to blush. Yn returned with an extra dog bowl, which she filled with dog food and laid down for Fox, as well as some water. "fucking simp" "Karl, your coco is done," Yn said as she returned her gaze to her brother, who was lying on the floor holding his nether region. Karl's eyes gleamed as he dashed to the kitchen.  As you handed Karl the coco, he sat and waited. "Thanks, Yn!" Yn merely smiles at him."Your welcome, Karl!" She replied with a flush on her cheeks. Yn and Karl had no idea that Sapnap was filming everything and uploading it to Instagram and Twitter. Yn examined her phone after hearing a ding. Sapnapalt posted two photos and a video....view. Yn pressed the view button and saw two photos of Karl and Yn, as well as a video of Yn petting Karl. The description was simple but strange, like everything else he posts: 'Karl left me for my sister @Yn >:(' (whatever your twitter is :D) Karl picked up his phone and clicked on something that Yn only assumed was the same thing they just saw because Karl got up and tackled Sapnap to the ground. Yn watched the two boys play fight and began recording them and posting it on twitter 'Karl didn't like Sapnap posting me petting his hair...it's really fluffy btw:D'. When Sapnap's phone buzzed, Karl took a look at it. As Yn stood waiting, Sapnap pressed the notification button. They both looked at Yn as they stood up and began chasing them. Fox also got involved in the chase.
Karl grabbed Yn and pulled them both onto the couch, where they all started laughing. You smacked the back of Sapnap's head, causing his hat to fall off "HEY NOT COOL" Sapnap yelled as he put his hat back on "whatever shorty" Yn answered back. "I'm not short," Sapnap remarked, stomping his foot slightly. "Dude you litrally are," "Shush, you're only a couple inches taller than him," Yn said, making Karl pout. "Awwwe Karl, I'm sorry,"  Yn murmured softly and gently touched the boy's hair, making him grin.  Karl pushed Sapnap off the couch and cuddled with Yn. Karl  rested his head on their shoulder and encircled them with his arms. Yn yawned softly while petting Karl's hair with their other hand. Yn began to doze off on the couch, snuggling Karl. -TIME SKIP TO CHRISTMAS EVE-
Yn and Karl were seated on the couch, with Sapnap on the floor, watching The Nightmare Before Christmas. Yn couldn't concentrate on the movie because all they could think about was the male in their lap who was watching it half way through. Sapnap and Karl both fell asleep, allowing Yn some opportunity to put out the gifts they had gotten if they could get out from beneath the sleeping boy in their lap. They put a pillow under Karl's head and a blanket over him once Yn had gotten out from under him. Karl whined a little but nestled up to the blanket, making Yn laugh. Yn walked away to get the gifts, only to return to see Karl sitting up and rubbing his eyes. "Hey sleepyhead, what are you up to?" Yn asked after they quickly rehid the gifts and walked up to Karl. The fluffy-haired boy, did not respond but placed his arms around Yn's waist and leaned against their stomach.  Yn gave Karl a sweet smile and buried their fingers in his hair. Yn like touching his hair because it was the softest thing they had ever touched. Karl looked up at Yn with puppy dog eyes. "What's wrong, Karl?" Yn asked him softly . Karl shrugged and averted his gaze. Yn gently shifted his gaze back to them. Karl raised his eyes to the ceiling and pointed to the roof. When Yn looked where Karl was pointing, she noticed a simple mistletoe hung from the ceiling, which caused her to blush and return her gaze to Karl.  she was blushing as well Yn offered him a sweet grin and a kiss on the nose, making him flush even more. Karl kissed Yn's nose, then their cheeks, then their jaw, and then a simple kiss on the lips. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE"  Yn took a step back from Karl and looked around for the source of the voice; there was Sapnap, staring at both of them. Karl paused and took his hands away from Yn's waist, staring at the ground "i-um i-i" Yn couldn't say anything because they were both frozen. "You guys could have told me you were dating," Sapnap muttered, crossing his arms. Yn just pointed to the mistletoe, still stunned. Sapnap pouted and sat on the floor, murmuring something before returning his gaze to Yn and Karl. "Do it again," Sapnap urged, bouncing slightly like a child, "I won't look," he added, covering his eyes but peeking between his fingers. Karl kissed Yn's cheek quickly and blushed, his face hidden.  Yn laughed and kissed Karl on the forehead, then returned her attention to Sapnap, who was peering out from under his hands. "Go to sleep little bitch," Yn said as they moved up to him and pushed him over. "I'm not a little bitch Yn," Sapnap complained. "yes Sappy sure," Yn merely pressed their lips together and gazed down at the man. Yn shifted their gaze away from Sapnap and toward Karl, who was sound sleeping and smiling broadly.  Yn was startled to hear faint snores and peered down at Sapnap, who was fast asleep. Yn walked over to the rehidden gifts and picked them up, placing them under the tree. Yn then walked over to the couch, sat in front of it, leaning their head back, and fell asleep. Yn was startled awake by the familiar sound of a flash. Yn groaned and slid over, resting against the warm items beside them, producing another flushing sound. When Yn opened their eyes, they were greeted by a familiar hoodie worn by a fluffy hair boy the night before. When Yn looked up, they were greeted by a sleeping male, Karl.
They merely placed their heads on Karl's chest and fell asleep again, only to be awoken a few minutes later by the sound of their phone dinging. Yn turned over gently so as not to wake the sleeping boy who had his arms around them. Yn grabbed their phone. Sapnapalt has posted two photos...view. Yn clicked on the view button once again and was greeted with two photos of them and Karl cuddling. The caption was simple and sweet Merry Christmas Lovebirds ;) Yn smiled and liked the post, then went to the comments and was ready to comment on it but began reading the comments, 'eww why is Karl cuddling that,' and they began to get removed while she was reading them. Karl was up and had Sapnap's phone, removing all the harsh remarks without Yn even realising. Yn was instantly encircled in two arms, and they felt a head lean between their shoulderblades. "Merry Christmas, my beloved," Karl murmured, making Yn flush. "Merry Christmas, you giant teddy bear," Yn whispered back. ---- cutely throws chair MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR HUNNY BUNS

DREAM SMP Swap AU
Dream = Wilbur : Dream comes into the server to help these two kids who are trying to stir shit up -- why not, right? He's got a fondness for chaos but also very protective and caring over his friends. VERY FOND OF TUBBO. To the point of.. well, brotherhood. Wilbur = Dream : He had a vision, to create a place where people could emancipate -- he's not above being the bad guy to keep that ideal in place. He's charming and self-confident and isn't afraid to use blackmail or get all up in your business. Has dirt on everyone but Dream. Constantly threatens secrets but subtle, yanno? Again, very charming, very persuasive.
Tubbo = Tommy : Still very sweet, but Big Crime often comes out to play more often than not. Also a huge trouble magnet, tried to start a...Honey smuggling empire? For some fucking reason, despite its innocent sounding plan, is a threat to Wilbur's land but no one has any idea why. Tommy = Tubbo : Tommy has an innate fucking fixation on music discs. He's got Cat and Mellohi personally. He dreams of starting up a music cafe/music area...? He and Dream get along swimmingly, Dream actually gifts Tommy a few music discs too, but also pins Tommy with the name discount Dave Strider.
Fundy = Eret : Was convinced earlier on by Wilbur to continue his 'legacy' and ideals. Fundy further grows into a neutral party, doing things only when it benefits him. Is the traitor from the first war. Eret = Fundy : Gets far too involved with stuff and the only way out is if he wiggles through the restraints on him. Yes that's metaphorical.
JSchlatt = Technoblade : Assists through uses of contracts and business deals. Like, hello, Tubbo's Honey smuggling business? He and Dream make an agreement, he supplies Dream and Tubbo with shit, and Dream does favors for Schlatt. Technoblade = Jschlatt : Anarchy lmfao. Was actually brought on by Wilbur in secret. Acted as a benefactor for Dream before turning around and causing chaos in the land Dream Tubbo and Tommy built. Blood for the blood god, only the strongest gets to the top kind of government. There's always fucking pitfights. Oops.
Philza = Callahan : Largely uninvolved in the events, mostly just there to supervise Wilbur, Tommy and Techno. Duh. Callahan = Philza : Has personal history with Dream, tries to convince him not to do the thing that could hurt everyone else. Minimally succeeds.
Alyssa = Niki : Ready to defend her home and her family. Niki = Alyssa : Neutral, but ready to back Wilbur up if need be.
Sapnap = Bad : Arsonist, goes around and burns shit whenever he wants to. His base is a Nether inspired fortress. Also, he has to deal with a Nether problem in reference to the Red Vine problem from the original SMP. Hotlands? LMFAO Bad = Sapnap : Helps when asked. Started out on Wilbur's side, as a favor, but slowly shifts neutral due to the conflict between factions.
Karl = Skeppy : Gets held hostage? That's what preoccupies Sapnap's time. He suddenly disappeears or gets trapped in a cell. Skeppy = Karl : Runs around doing supply runs. Gets his friends into various stints to try and settle the conflict through friendly rivalry and competition. It doesn't always work.
George = Ranboo : Unlike original Ranboo, George is highly unsympathetic and needs concrete fucking facts before he acts, and that kind of backfires on him in the end. As a favor to Dream (how many favors is Dream involved in honestly) he runs messages back and forth from Tubbo to Tommy. Ranboo = George : Largely uninvolved in the conflict, like Niki, but unlike OG George, is not absent. He's just there to assist. One of the most innocent and purest people on the SMP, knows when to keep his head down. When his house burns down, he doesn't really believe its Tubbo who did it -- he knows the kid has been framed because he'd been WITH him at the time, but Wilbur pressures him to admit it.
Quackity = Punz : Wilbur's loyal paid henchman. Quackity will cause shit for the appropriate price, he's not exceptionally picky. That stunt he did as Mexican Dream was great and everyone in L'Manberg loved it. Punz = Quackity : One of the best fighters under Techno. Has more morals, but keeps them secretly. Very good at hiding his true intentions/feelings.
(sorry about the other characters not being on here, i dont know them enough to make swaps, or dont know who they'd make a good swap with. Swap who you wanna swap though! i'd like to hear your take on this matter! HEADCANONS ACCEPTED TOO AT THIS POINT EVERYTHING HERE IS FROM WHAT I REMEMBER AND MY HEADCANONS)
PLOT
-Wilbur starts the SMP with Niki, slowly invites others like Ranboo, Tommy, and Tubbo.
-Tubbo expresses a desire to Fuck Shit Up and Tommy says they can get Dream, he's an expert at getting away.
-Dream is extremely protective of them both. Tubbo more than Tommy but that's fine because Tommy is largely independent.
-Tubbo gets in the weirdest shit but Tommy can roll with the punches really quickly.
-Wilbur gets tired of their crap and burns down Tubbo's establishment. It's like the Disc Wars except it's the Great Honey War. Bee War? Basically he's tired of Tubbo hogging all the Honey related expenditures.
-Dream gets the idea to make a honey smuggling empire, as a joke, but Tubbo is Big Crime and he's going with it. Tommy just wants chaos, and he was getting bored tbh.
-Eventually the Honey thing turns into Resource management, so Tubbo Dream and Tommy have a hold on all major supplies
-Shit happens and Dream, Tubbo, Tommy, Eret, Sam, Fundy and Alyssa establish an independent nation. Dunno what to call it bc the server is called the L'manberg SMP so....
-The fight for indepencence still happens. Instead of 'Green boy' Wilbur is named 'E-boy'. Dream still says "WE HAVE NO MERCY FOR YOU" when Wil calls for a ceasefire negotiation, but Wilbur does threaten the nation saying  "If there is no white flag by tomorrow, then you can kiss your sorry little arses good bye. That's my final warning."
-Turns out Fundy's been secretly funneling information to Wilbur in exchange for the safety of his friends, and also because Wilbur's his dad....uhm. Also! He and Dream are circling each other and others are like "OH MY GOD YOU GUYS ARE DEAD RINGERS FOR QUEERPLATONIC MATES JUST MARRY ALREADY" bc I like FundyWasTaken but others might not and its okay, we'll label it as platonic, but can be read otherwise depending on your tastes. But for this, it's very close platonic.
-Wilbur goads Tommy into a fight, as brothers do, but Tubbo steps in and Wilbur fucking jumps at the chance.
-This is the start of Dream's descent into madness. No one fucking threatens or pulls one of his friends like that. Denied. It's still subtle though, so he's okay for now.
-Tubbo and Wilbur face off. When Tubbo pulls back bc he genuinely doesn't want to hurt anyone, Wilbur takes the chance and beats him.
-Tubbo, however, makes a deal. Let their nation stand on its own, and he'll give up the Resource Empire he started. Wilbur accepts, with the condition that they unify their alliance with a...marriage? So basically, political marriage between Wilbur's heir, Fundy, and Dream, the leader of the revolution.
-YEAH I WENT THERE THIS IS VALID
-They're strained at first, but Dream and Fundy slowly mend their relationship post-betrayal.
-Fast forward a few months later. The Nation doesn't really have a leader, as per the agreement, but it does have a representative. All decisions are made via majority votes, and that decision is voiced by the rep and sub-rep, Dream and Tubbo respectively. Tommy's just there to have a good time and causes chaos as per usual.
-Enter Technoblade. He's been called in by Wilbur to...ah. Dismantle a little...nation. Sounds right up his alley. But he asks Wilbur to wait and see what happens.
-Tommy and Dream get the idea to hold a tournament to celebrate their independence, an all out brawl for everyone to kick back and relieve stress. There. That's where Techno comes in.
-He gets Punz to join him after like, being paid (ofc) and they fucking dominate the tournament. Dream's about to congratulate them but Techno turns the fuck around and declares his right to rule the nation. If anyone wants to fight him for the title, they're welcome to try.
-Dream loses another life to Techno trying and failing to fight it. He and a few others lost their first life sometime elsewhere? I guess? Probably by being blown up by Wilbur, idk.
-Tubbo and Dream are chased out by people who reluctantly follow Techno's orders, and Tommy, torn between his friends and his brothers, stays behind. Oh jeezus.
-Since Techno is a fighting GOD, no one's able to usurp him to make things turn back to normal. But Dream is smart, and knows Wilbur's 100% behind this. Fundy kind of knew but didn't do shit about it, which is why Dream rejects Fundy's offer of sanctuary. He can't be sure his husband will stay on his side, after all. It's nothing personal.
-Dream and Tubbo hide away somewhere, probably not a ravine but?? A mountain or something? They manage to get Sam away enough to ask him to build a super cool Redstone contraption thing that opens for them. ooooo.
-I'm not good at names but for the sake of jokes I'm gonna call their land the 'Bee's Knees' bc at some point Tubbo finds a fuckton of Hives hanging from Trees. Bee Mountain if Dream's feeling especially salty.
-SPEAKING OF DREAM. his insanity is on course now, it's slowly eating away at him and in fear of hurting Tubbo he's slowly distancing himself away. Tubbo's like what's wrong but Dream can't answer -- he doesn't know what's wrong with himself either.
-Tubbo and Dream need to go back and confront Techno, but they can't wait for long else Techno's going to obliterate everyone and their extra lives. They call Schlatt in.
-Schlatt's a pure business man and draws up a contract. He'll aid them in terms of supplies, but most of the revolution is on them. They agree.
-Tommy is actually really fucking good at lying and skirting around what he reveals to Dream and tubbo as a spy that Techno would have believed him if he didnt' know his brother. and Wilbur's warnings, of course. That results in Techno just being fucking done with Tommy's bullshit and plans his execution in another tournament? I guess?
-It doesn't go like the festival. First of all, Schlatt can't fight for shit, so why would Techno call him up the stage? No, Schlatt fights dirty. techno doesn't set much rules so theres no rule against poisoning Tommy quick and easy before the fight. Tommy loses another life and is on his last. Tubbo is spitting mad, but Schlatt points out that nothing in the contract covered this, so he's free to do as necessary. Tubbo is stopped by Dream who, at this point, is just overtaken by the need to one-up Techno.
-Also, Wilbur's been slowly persuading Dream to just. Let go. Let the monster inside of him free, he 'deserves it'. By the end of it all, Dream does. He snaps and lets loose the monster crying for blood inside him.
-Callahan is left to convince his old friend not to do it. In a moment of clarity, Dream stares on in horror of what he'd done. In his rage he managed to deplete ALL of Techno's lives (not really but shhhh), cause massive bloodshed, and terrified everyone in the process. He asks Callahan to kill him. Callahan does.
-Yes we'll get to Ghost Dream eventually.
-Anyway, Schlatt still does the Wither plan, because, uh, Drunken Rage. He was so stressed out from the ensuing conflict that he's like "LETS JUST FINISH THE REST OF YOU. THERE WILL BE NO CONFLICT IF YOU ARENT THERE TO FIGHT."
-and then he uses the line from the Lego movie on Tubbo like "Oh, Tubbster. It's nothing personal. It's just Business(tm)".
-Schlatt still dies of stroke. He does come back as a ghost though, that's one main difference.
-After everything's said and done, and the dust has settled, everyone decides to disband the nation, and just live their lives. like, they're done, wilbur, they get your point, jfc, let them rest.
-but uhhhh someone frames tubbo for setting fire to ranboo's (the server sweetheart) house. wilbur immediately decides to exile tubbo in 'anger'. acutally, he wants tommy and tubbo separated.
-tommy's not standing for it though, he fucking fights his way until wilbur threatens him and tubbo's like YES FINE OKAY I'LL AGREE TO BEING EXILED STOP THREATENING YOUR BROTHER
-tubbo's exile arc is not as sad as tommy's, but rather very tense because wilbur keeps riling tubbo up and taunting him. he still keeps contact with tommy though because they arent going to be separated just like that. no way. tubbo just gets a little more mad and gets short tempered like a lot.
-ranboo's not even that mad about it, he knows tubbo would never burn his house, there was a conspiracy on board and even if there wasn't he's like "arent yall overreacting its just a house, didnt you all do this like before the first war even began, what even (also, ranboo was WITH tubbo at the time of his house allegedly being set on fire. Not that he'll admit to it, because he and tubbo made that agreement long before)
-eventually he finds out that wilbur just wanted to pin the blame on tubbo to make him leave, and ranboo's like "IM DONE WITH YOUR CRAP WILLBUR STOP HURTING THE PEOPLE I CARE ABOUT" and leaves
-with the nation gone, people started to solidify their groups. sapnap and karl deal with their own thing, quackity still runs errands for wilbur, george is the main person ferrying messages from tubbo to tommy back and forth, etc.
-there's a funeral for dream, ofc, fundy arranged it. all of dream's shit was hidden because fundy doesnt want wilbur to get it.
-niki's still there managing her bakeshop but doubles as an informant for wilbur because she's well liked within the server
-ghost dream is present and he's a chaotic troll who mostly hangs around tommy. he's really hyper active and is always on the move, you can never catch him sitting still for like, 5 minutes
THAT"S ALL I HAVE FOR MY SMP SWAP AU PLEASE BE GENTLE I DONT HAVE TIME TO GET ALL THE FACTS STRAIGHT FROM THE OG SMP qwq

★☆✪❉✯⍟♌ ♒🌷ꕥ🍀 - bsd muses~
★ what kind of phone do they have?
Chuuya - A high-end smartphone that’s technically a few years out of date but still functional. He could upgrade it but doesn’t see much point; cell phones are the type of tech he’s invested in pouring money into. 
Alcott - An older-model, flat flip phone. It does its job, and she has a cute flower charm attached to it. She could afford something newer by now, probably, but this one was a gift shortly after joining the Guild, and she doesn’t want to part with it. 
Ranpo - A smartphone that he doesn’t use much, despite the number of games he has saved on it. He tried to use its GPS navigator once and ended up getting lost for the better part of a day. (But hey, he found a really good ramen place out of it.)
☆ what is their phone’s background?
Chuuya - His background is a bottle of wine being poured into a glass. His lock screen is a picture of his motorcycle. (They used to be different, once upon a time, and he still has the photos he used back then saved on the phone.)
Alcott - Her phone is so old that its background is a simple color: a soft teal.
Ranpo - His background is a picture of Karl! ... Really. It’s Karl. Poe’s just in it. Because he’s holding Karl up to the screen. His lock screen is someone’s hands as they’re writing something furiously. The edge of the sleeve that can be seen looks a little familiar... 
✪ their standard ringtone?
Chuuya - The chorus of a rock song he’s liked for years. Once upon a time it’d get changed every so often to things he hated, but that hasn’t happened in so long he’s almost forgotten it would ever happen.
Alcott - A little piano melody that’s loud enough to hear but soft enough not to startle her. 
Ranpo - One of those obnoxious ‘ringtones’ that’s just a voice telling you to ANSWER THE PHONE. Sometimes he’ll switch it up for an obnoxiously-catchy pop song that’s popular right now.
❉ do they have any pictures on their phone?
Chuuya - He has some recent pictures from outings with the other members of the mafia that he’s reasonably close to,but most of the photos on his phone are old ones that he can’t bring himself to get rid of but doesn’t want to look at so he pretends they’re not there.
Alcott - A very old, very grainy picture of her family, taken with the phone’s poor-quality camera. It’s the only one she has on it, but it’s enough.
Ranpo - Quite a few! He likes taking pictures of sweets he’s going to eat that are as visually appealing as they are tasty, so that he can keep them forever and still eat them. He even did a photo diary of his snacks for a month and never bothered deleting those pictures. There’s also a few candids of his coworkers taken when he was bored, a cool bird he saw out the window, one of Kenji’s plants on top of a computer, and more than a few candids of Poe.
✯ what do their texts look like? do they use emojis often? what kind?
Chuuya - [to: mackerel] stop texting me when i’m in the middle of a job. i know you know i am i fucking saw you waving at me. 
Alcott - [to: Mother] Is everything alright at home? I haven’t heard from you in some time, so... I was worried.
Ranpo - [to: ed] hey ed r u busy if ur not i have something 4 u so lets meet up ok ^u^
⍟ any games on their phone? what kind? how often do they play?
Chuuya - ...He has Neko Atsume and he has spent significant amounts of real money on spoiling his pixel cat visitors. Tell no-one. He has a few card and puzzle games, too. 
Alcott - Herr phone is too old for any good games, but it does have centipede and a difficult-to-control pinball game.
Ranpo - His phone is 95% games. Card games and puzzle games, mostly, things that are distracting and colorful and fun. It’s useful to fidget with, and he’ll try just about anything once if it’s recommended to him, but he’s pretty quick to forget them if they can’t hold his interest.
♌ how do they drink their coffee/tea?
Chuuya - For his coffee, he drinks it black and gulps it down. It’s something he drinks for energy rather than for pleasure, so he doesn’t care too much about the taste. With tea, he’ll add sugar, but only if he thinks no-one’s watching. It’d be embarrassing to be caught adding sugar to it.
Alcott - She doesn’t drink coffee, and when it comes to tea she puts honey in it to sweeten it.
Ranpo - He can’t drink either one plain; with coffee he will only drink it if it’s flavored and full of cream and sugar, so much so that it can barely be called coffee any more. Tea needs milk and a lot of sugar, as well --- really, they’re more like sugar with a little coffee or tea added to them. 
♒ their cleaning routine - laundry/dishes/cleaning the rooms
Chuuya - He keeps his home pretty meticulous; his suite at HQ is cleaned by the same people who handle other higher-ups’ quarters, but at his house he’s the only one who keeps it clean, and he makes sure to do the dishes at least once a day and drop his clothes by dry-cleaning once a week as necessary. (Less delicate clothing he’ll handle every few days.) General cleaning he’ll do after work whenever he has the energy. It’s relaxing.
Alcott - She tries to keep a routine, but she isn’t obsessive about it. Laundry once or twice a week, dishes every day or two, and she’ll go over and do basic cleaning every two weeks or so.
Ranpo - Things like laundry and dishes don’t really cross his mind --- they happen around him, generally, unless he’s bribed into doing them, and as for regular cleaning, he... isn’t a slob, but he does tend to get distracted and will leave things lying around without bothering to put them up. It’s not like he’ll forget where he put them, so it’s not a big deal.
🌷 what do they have in their wallet?
Chuuya - Cash (over 25,000 yen / 250 USD, on average, sometimes upwards of 50,000 yen / 500 USD), credit/debit cards and his license. He doesn’t need to keep more in it than that, and he’s not particularly worried about it getting stolen (by anyone but Dazai at least.), so what does he care about a few raised eyebrows about walking around with a lot of cash money on hand?
Alcott - A picture of her sister Elizabeth, about 1500-2500 yen / 15-25 USD, her ID and a membership card for her favorite chain bookstore. 
Ranpo - His cash candy fund of about 3000-5000 yen / 30-50 USD, an old photo of his parents, his address, and a folded-up map. There may or may not be a few old crushed M&Ms and melted candy in one pocket.
ꕥ what’s usually in their trouser/jacket pockets or purse?
Chuuya - His keys, his phone, his wallet, a lockpicking kit, and a packet of cigarettes.
Alcott - Lip balm, extra pens, her phone, her wallet, some loose spare change, and a tin of mints.
Ranpo - At least two packages of candy or snacks, though it varies between things like kit-kats and lollipops or boxes of pocky or gummies, etc. His wallet. A magnifying glass (that he doesn’t use but he just... he just wants it, leave him be), and of course, his glasses.
🍀 what kind of jewellery are they wearing? what’s their favourite peace?
Chuuya - He has his choker, but other than that doesn’t really wear much jewelry. There are other ways to look fashionable than that --- though he will sometimes wear it on his rare off days, if it’s something that’s needed to complete the look he’s going for.
Alcott - She has a necklace that she wears under her shirt. It has a pendant on it that’s shaped like a bird in flight. That’s her only real jewelry piece, but she’s very attached to it.
Ranpo - He doesn’t wear jewelry --- it’s not comfortable and it’s more to bother with ---, but he does keep his parents’ wedding rings in a box at home.

Ornaments Quotes

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push();
• A collection of bad love songs, tattered from overuse, has to touch us like a cemetery or a village. So what if the houses have no style, if the graves are vanishing under tasteless ornaments and inscriptions? Before an imagination sympathetic and respectful enough to conceal momentarily its aesthetic disdain, that dust may release a flock of souls, their beaks holding the still verdant dreams that gave them an inkling of the next world and let them rejoice or weep in this world.- Marcel Proust • A country whose buildings are of wood, can never increase in its improvements to any considerable degree…. Whereas when buildings are of durable materials, every new edifice is an actual and permanent acquisition to the state, adding to its value as well as to its ornament. – Thomas Jefferson • A fine thought in fine language is a most precious jewel, and should not be hid away, but be exposed for use and ornament. – Arthur Conan Doyle • A good youth ought to have a fear of God, to be subject to his parents, to give honor to his elders, to preserve his purity; he ought not to despise humility, but should love forbearance and modesty. All these are an ornament to youthful years. – Ambrose • A lady I will be, but a man’s accessory, his handbag, no thank you. I will not be someone’s ornament. I will not just be someone’s honey, baby, sweetheart. – Deb Caletti • A metaphor is not an ornament. It is an organ of perception. Through metaphors, we see the world as one thing or another. – Neil Postman • A minute analysis of life at once destroys that splendor which dazzles the imagination. Whatsoever grandeur can display, or luxury enjoy, is procured by offices of which the mind shrinks from the contemplation. All the delicacies of the table may be traced back to the shambles and the dunghill; all magnificence of building was hewn from the quarry, and all the pomp of ornament dug from among the damps and darkness of the mine. – Samuel Johnson • A nation which lives a pastoral and innocent life never decorates the shepherd’s staff or the plough-handle; but races who live by depredation and slaughter nearly always bestow exquisite ornaments on the quiver, the helmet, and the spear. – John Ruskin • A political action committee trying to raise money for a 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign is selling “Ready for Hillary” champagne glasses and Christmas ornaments. Because if one thing improves the holidays, it’s drinking mixed with politics. – Jimmy Fallon • A pretty woman is a Christmas tree,’ my mother told me in the airport. This fella is hanging things on my branches as his gaze sweeps from my face all the way down my body to my hips and then back to my face. Ideas fly from his widened eyes and land on me like teeny, decorative burdens. He is giving me shyness, maybe, some book smarts, and a certain yielding sweetness in bed. The oil-slick eyes get me, and I find myself hanging a few ornaments myself, giving him deft hands and a sense of humor. – Joshilyn Jackson • A right mind and generous affection hath more beauty and charms than all other symmetries in the world besides; and a grain of honesty and native worth is of more value than all the adventitious ornaments, estates, or preferments; for the sake of which some of the better sort so oft turn knaves. – Anthony Ashley-Cooper, 7th Earl of Shaftesbury • A simple garb is the proper costume of the vulgar; it is cut for them, and exactly suits their measure, but it is an ornament for those who have filled up their lives with great deeds. I liken them to beauty in dishabille, but more bewitching on that account. – Jean de la Bruyere • A work of art is a world in itself reflecting senses and emotions of the artist’s world. Just as a flower, by virtue of its existence as a complete organism is both ornamental and self-sufficient as to color, form, and texture, so art, because of its singular existence is more than mere ornament. – Hans Hofmann • Acquire knowledge. It enables its possessor to distinguish right from wrong; it lights the way to Heaven; it is our friend in the desert, our society in solitude, our companion when friendless; it guides us to happiness; it sustains us in misery; it is an ornament among our friends and an armor against enemies. – Elijah Muhammad • All are architects of Fate, Working in these walls of Time; Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme. – Henry Wadsworth Longfellow • All art is erotic. The first ornament to have been invented, the cross, was of erotic origin. It was the first work of art. A horizontal stroke: the woman lying down. A vertical stroke: the male who penetrates her. – Adolf Loos • All the manifested world of things and beings are projected by imagination upon the substratum which is the Eternal All-pervading Vishnu, whose nature is Existence-Intelligence; just as the different ornaments are all made out of the same gold. – Adi Shankara • All the revision in the world will not save a bad first draft: for the architecture of the thing comes, or fails to come, in the first conception, and revision only affects the detail and ornament, alas! – T. E. Lawrence • An alliterative prefix served as an ornament of oratory. – Oscar Wilde • An archer competing for a clay vessel shoots effortlessly, his or her skill and concentration unimpeded. If the prize is changed to a brass ornament, the hands begin to shake. If it is changed to gold, he or she squints as if going blind. The abilities do not deteriorate, but belief in them does, as he or she allows the supposed value of an external reward to cloud the vision. – Zhuangzi • Another of the strange and evil tendencies of the present day is the decoration of the railroad station… There was never more flagrant nor impertinent folly than the smallest portion of ornament in anything connected with the railroads… Railroad architecture has or would have a dignity of its own if it were only left to its work. – John Ruskin • Anyone may have diamonds: an heirloom is an ornament of quite a different kind. – Elizabeth Aston • Architecture has its political Use; publick Buildings being the Ornament of a Country; it establishes a Nation, draws People and Commerce; makes the People love their native Country, which Passion is the Original of all great Actions in a Common-wealth…. Architecture aims at Eternity. – Christopher Wren • Arms are my ornaments, warfare my repose. – Miguel de Cervantes • Art matters not merely because it is the most magnificent ornament and the most nearly unfailing occupation of our lives, but because it is life itself. – Randall Jarrell • Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valour As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that Which thou esteem’st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting ‘I dare not’ wait upon ‘I would,’ Like the poor cat i’ the adage? – William Shakespeare • artists were intended to be an ornament to society. As a society in themselves they are unthinkable. – Elizabeth Bowen • As by some might be saide of me: that here I have but gathered a nosegay of strange floures, and have put nothing of mine unto it, but the thred to binde them. Certes, I have given unto publike opinion, that these borrowed ornaments accompany me; but I meane not they should cover or hide me. – Michel de Montaigne • As I passed along the side walls of Westminster Abbey, I hardly saw any thing but marble monuments of great admirals, but which were all too much loaded with finery and ornaments, to make on me at least, the intended impression. – Karl Philipp Moritz • As not every instance of similitude can be considered as a proof of imitation, so not every imitation ought to be stigmatised as plagiarism. The adoption of a noble sentiment, or the insertion of a borrowed ornament, may sometimes display so much judgment as will almost compensate for invention; and an inferior genius may, without any imputation of servility, pursue the paths of the ancients, provided he declines to tread in their footsteps. – Samuel Johnson • As the vine which has long twined its graceful foliage about the oak and been lifted by it into sunshine, will, when the hardy plant is rifted by the thunderbolt, cling round it with its caressing tendrils and bind up its shattered boughs, so is it beautifully ordered by Providence that woman, who is the mere dependent and ornament of man in his happier hours, should be his stay and solace when smitten with sudden calamity, winding herself into the rugged recesses of his nature, tenderly supporting the drooping head, and binding up the broken heart. – Washington Irving • At most, the greatest persons are but great wens, and excrescences; men of wit and delightful conversation, but as morals for ornament, except they be so incorporated into the body of the world that they contribute something to the sustentation of the whole. – John Donne

It is a kind of contempt of those with whom we converse, to frequent their company in uncomely apparel; but, at the same time, avoid all affectation, vanity, curiosity, or levity in your dress. Keep yourself always, as much as possible, on the side of plainness and modesty, which, without doubt, is the greatest ornament of beauty, and the best excuse for the want of it. – Saint Francis de Sales • Beautify your tongues, O people, with truthfulness, and adorn your souls with the ornament of honesty. Beware, O people, that ye deal not treacherously with any one. – Bahá’u’lláh • Beauty doesn’t need ornaments. Softness can’t bear the weight of ornaments. – Munshi Premchand • beauty is the projection of ugliness and by developing certain monstrosities we obtain the purest ornaments. – Jean Genet • Beside all the moral benefit which we may expect from the farmer’s profession, when a man enters it considerately, this promised the conquering of the soil, plenty, and beyond this, the adorning of the country with every advantage and ornament which labor, ingenuity, and affection for a man’s home, could suggest. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • But now sustainability is such a political category that it’s getting more and more difficult to think about it in a serious way. Sustainability has become an ornament. – Rem Koolhaas • But the building’s identity resided in the ornament. – Louis Sullivan • But the greatest error of all the rest is the mistaking or misplacing of the last or farthest end of knowledge: for men have entered into a desire of learning and knowledge, sometimes upon a natural curiosity and inquisitive appetite; sometimes to entertain their minds with variety and delight; sometimes for ornament and reputation; and sometimes to enable them to victory of wit and contradiction; and most times for lucre and profession; and seldom sincerely to give a true account of their gift of reason, to the benefit and use of men. – Francis Bacon • By the word simplicity, is not always meant folly or ignorance; but often, pure and upright Nature, free from artifice, craft or deceitful ornament. – Benjamin Franklin

Schulz • Clearness is the ornament of deep thought. – Luc de Clapiers • Clearness ornaments profound thoughts. – Luc de Clapiers • Coordinating there Events and objects with remote events And vanished objects. Making ornaments Of accidents and possibilities. – Vladimir Nabokov • Culture is not just an ornament; it is the expression of a nation’s character, and at the same time it is a powerful instrument to mould character. The end of culture is right living. – W. Somerset Maugham • Don’t let your heart depend on things That ornament life in a fleeting way! He who possesses, let him learn to lose, He who is fortunate, let him learn pain. – Friedrich Schiller • Education gives sobriety to the young, comfort to the old, riches to the poor and is an ornament to the rich. – Diogenes • Education is a companion which no misfortune can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate, no despotism can enslave. At home, a friend, abroad, an introduction, in solitude a solace and in society an ornament. It chastens vice, it guides virtue, it gives at once grace and government to genius. Without it, what is man? A splendid slave, a reasoning savage. – Joseph Addison • Education is an ornament in prosperity and a refuge in adversity. – Aristotle • Education is the food of youth, the delight of old age, the ornament of prosperity, the refuge and comfort of adversity, and the provocation to grace in the soul. – Saint Augustine • Elegance is not an ornament worthy of man. – Seneca the Younger • Even in the scorched and frozen world of the dead after the holocaust The wheel as it turns goes on accreting ornaments. – Robert Pinsky • Fierce Determination and Gentle Humility are the ornaments which make one attractive in the eyes of the Lord. – Radhanath Swami • Friendship is like a glass ornament, once it is broken it can rarely be put back together exactly the same way. – Charles Kingsley • Gardening is a luxury occupation: an ornament, not a necessity, of life…. Fortunate gardener, who may preoccupy himself solely with beauty in these difficult and ugly days! He is one of the few people left in this distressful world to carry on the tradition of elegance and charm. A useless member of society, considered in terms of economics, he must not be denied his rightful place. He deserves to share it, however humbly, with the painter and poet. – Vita Sackville-West • God help us! it is a foolish little thing, this human life, at the best; and it is half ridiculous and half pitiful to see what importance we ascribe to it, and to its little ornaments and distinctions. – Francis Jeffrey, Lord Jeffrey • Greatness of Soul seems therefore to be as it were a crowning ornament of the virtues; it enhances their greatness, and it cannot exist without them. Hence it is hard to be truly great-souled, for greatness of soul is impossible without moral nobility. – Aristotle • He might have proved a useful adjunct, if not an ornament to society. – Charles Lamb • He removes the greatest ornament of friendship who takes away from it respect. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • He takes the greatest ornament from friendship, who takes modesty from it.

Girls want to wear too many of them. When they become old women they look silly wearing even one. – Arthur Golden • Hostility towards Microsoft is not difficult to find on the Net, and it blends two strains: resentful people who feel Microsoft is too powerful, and disdainful people who think it’s tacky. This is all strongly reminiscent of the heyday of Communism and Socialism, when the bourgeoisie were hated from both ends: by the proles, because they had all the money, and by the intelligentsia, because of their tendency to spend it on lawn ornaments. Microsoft is the very embodiment of modern high-tech prosperity – it is, in a word, bourgeois – and so it attracts all of the same gripes. – Neal Stephenson • How much more doth beauty beauteous seem by that sweet ornament which truth doth give! – William Shakespeare • Humility is an ornament which attracts Krishna’s heart. Beginning of all knowledge comes from humility. – Radhanath Swami • Hypocrisy itself does great honor, or rather justice, to religion, and tacitly acknowledges it to be an ornament to human nature.

Andrews • I am glad that the life of pandas is so dull by human standards, for our efforts at conservation have little moral value if we preserve creatures only as human ornaments; I shall be impressed when we show solicitude for warty toads and slithering worms. – Stephen Jay Gould • I believe that organized religion is an ornament to the truth, and that aesthetics are part of its power. – Andrew Solomon • I believe the right question to ask, respecting all ornament, is simply this; was it done with enjoyment, was the carver happy while he was about it? – John Ruskin • I cannot however help repeating Piety, because I think it indispensible. Religion in a Family is at once its brightest Ornament & its best Security. – Samuel Adams • I foresee the time when the painter will paint that scene, no longer going to Rome for a subject; the poet will sing it; the historian record it; and, with the Landing of the Pilgrims and the Declaration of Independence, it will be the ornament of some future national gallery, when at least the present form of slavery shall be no more here. We shall then be at liberty to weep for Captain Brown. Then, and not till then, we will take our revenge. – Henry David Thoreau • I had hardly expected so dolichocephalic a skull or such well-marked supra-orbital development. Would you have any objection to my running my finger along your parietal fissure? A cast of your skull, sir, until the original is available, would be an ornament to any anthropological museum. It is not my intention to be fulsome, but I confess that I covet your skull. – Arthur Conan Doyle • I have emerged victorious from my thirty years of struggle. I have freed mankind from superfluous ornament. – Adolf Loos • I hold every man a debtor to his profession; from the which as men of course do seek to receive countenance and profit, so ought they of duty to endeavor themselves, by way of amends, to be a help and ornament thereunto. – Francis Bacon • I like ornament at the right time, but I don’t want a poem to be made out of decoration … When I read the poems that matter to me, it stuns me how much the presence of the heart-in all its forms-is endlessly available there. To experience ourselves in an important way just knocks me out. It puzzles me why people have given that up for cleverness. Some of them are ingenious, more ingenious than I am, but so many of them aren’t any good at being alive. – Jack Gilbert • I look for myself but find no one. I belong to the chrysanthemum hour of bright flowers placed in tall vases. I should make an ornament of my soul. – Fernando Pessoa • I love art, and I love history, but it is living art and living history that I love. It is in the interest of living art and living history that I oppose so-called restoration. What history can there be in a building bedaubed with ornament, which cannot at the best be anything but a hopeless and lifeless imitation of the hope and vigor of the earlier world? – William Morris • I never rebel so much against France as not to regard Paris with a friendly eye; she has had my heart since my childhood… I love her tenderly, even to her warts and her spots. I am French only by this great city: the glory of France, and one of the noblest ornaments of the world. – Michel de Montaigne • I read the newspapers with lively interest. It is seldom that they are absolutely, point-blank wrong. That is the popular belief, but those who are in the know can usually discern an embryo of truth, a little grit of fact, like the core of a pearl, round which have been deposited the delicate layers of ornament. – Evelyn Waugh • I repeat, sir, that in whatever position you place a woman she is an ornament to society and a treasure to the world. As a sweetheart, she has few equals and no superiors; as a cousin, she is convenient; as a wealthy grandmother with an incurable distemper, she is precious; as a wet-nurse, she has no equal among men. What, sir, would the people of the earth be without woman? They would be scarce, sir, almighty scarce. – Mark Twain • I see my body as an instrument, rather than an ornament. – Alanis Morissette • I think that ‘Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance’ was mentally taxing, if only because I had to go to a Christmas party shortly after I had wrapped photography in Romania at two in the morning as the Ghost Rider. The invitation had a Christmas ornament on it with Ghost Rider’s face on it as a tree. – Nicolas Cage • I think that the new models of Chevrolet should have Barney Frank as a hood ornament. – Sean Hannity • I think there is no better way to invite a human being to view their body differently than by inviting them to be an athlete, by revering one’s body as an instrument rather than just an ornament. – Alanis Morissette • I try to teach my students style, but always as a part of life, not as ornament. Style has to come out of communicating coherent thought, not in sticking little flowers on speeches. Style and substance and a sense of life are the things literature is composed of. One must use one’s own personality in relationship to life and language, of course, and everyone has such a relationship. Some people find it, some don’t find it, but it’s there. – Marguerite Young • I want to try to come away from that one directional, clear rectangular form. It’s not used because it’s the most beautiful form; it’s just the practical thing. That’s why our TVs are rectangles. Even in modern architecture, they want us to believe, “That’s the nicest, most beautiful thing.” I love modern architecture, but actually it’s that they cannot afford amorphous shapes or ornaments. – Pipilotti Rist • I write abundantly. And then my next step is to struggle to reduce the ornament, to reduce the abundance-to prune the book, in other words, the way one prunes a tree-so it can grow. This is my idea of a book. – James Wright • If the bees which seek the liquid oozing from the head of a lust-intoxicated elephant are driven away by the flapping of his ears, then the elephant has lost only the ornament of his head. The bees are quite happy in the lotus filled lake. – Chanakya • If the next car passed is blue, Violet will be okay, she thought. If it’s red, A will do something horrible to her. She heard a growl of an engine and shut her eyes, afraid to see what the future might hold. She’d never cared so much about anything in her life. Just as the car was passing, she opened her eyes and saw a Mercedes hood ornament. She let out a long sigh, tears coming to her eyes once more. The car was blue. – Sara Shepard • If those millions squandered on designing missionaries had been deposited in funds for the support of yourselves, when old age, misfortune, or sickness (from which none are exempt,) overtakes you, or for the distressed of your race, what a heaven of happiness you would have created on earth: ye would now be an ornament to your sex, and ages to come would call you blessed. But it is in vain to try – a priest-ridden female is lost to reason. Why? because she has surrendered her reason to the … missionaries … the orthodox; they are the grand deceivers. – Anne Royall • I’m a disorganized mess. My purse is gross: I once found a shoulder pad, string cheese, and a Christmas ornament in it! – Hoda Kotb • In 1979, postmodernism lost its understanding of the meaning of ornament. It degenerated into kitsch applique. – Charles Jencks • In railway halls, on pavements near the traffic, They beg, their eyes made big by empty staring And only measuring Time , like the blank clock. No, I shall weave no tracery of pen-ornament To make them birds upon my singing tree: Time merely drives these lives which do not live As tides push rotten stuff along the shore. – Stephen Spender • In religion, What damned error but some sober brow Will bless it, and approve it with a text, Hiding the grossness with fair ornament? – William Shakespeare • In religions which have lost their creative spark, the gods eventually become no more than poetic motifs or ornaments for decorating human solitude and walls. – Nikos Kazantzakis • In violence there is often the quality of yearning – the yearning for completion. For closure. For that which is absent and would if present bring to fulfillment. For the body without which the wing is a useless frozen ornament. (“A Short Guide To The City”) – Peter Straub • Indeed the river is a perpetual gala, and boasts each month a new ornament. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Is not disease the rule of existence? There is not a lily pad floating on the river but has been riddled by insects. Almost every shrub and tree has its gall, oftentimes esteemed its chief ornament and hardly to be distinguished from the fruit. If misery loves company, misery has company enough. Now, at midsummer, find me a perfect leaf or fruit. – Henry David Thoreau • It isn’t money itself that causes the trouble, but the use of money as votive offering and pagan ornament. – Lewis H. Lapham • It takes talent to please the people in a sermon by a flowery style, a cheerful ethic, brilliant sallies and lively descriptions; but such a talent is inadequate. A better sort of talent neglects these extraneous ornaments, unworthy to be used in the service of the Gospel: such a preacher’s sermon will be simple, strong and Christian. – Jean de la Bruyere • Jewelry and profuse ornaments are unmistakable evidences of vulgarity. – Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton • Learning maketh young men temperate, is the comfort of old age, standing for wealth with poverty, and serving as an ornament to riches. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • Let us give today first the vital things of life and all the grace and ornaments of life will follow. – Mahatma Gandhi • Libel actions, when we look at them in perspective, are an ornament of a civilized society. They have replaced, after all, at least in most cases, a resort to weapons in defense of a reputation. – Henry Anatole Grunwald • Man doth seek a triple perfection: first a sensual, consisting in those things which very life itself requireth either as necessary supplements, or as beauties and ornaments thereof; then an intellectual, consisting in those things which none underneath man is either capable of or acquainted with; lastly a spiritual and divine, consisting in those things whereunto we tend by supernatural means here, but cannot here attain unto them. – Richard Hooker • Mannerism is not character, and affectation is the avowed enemy of grace. Every dancer ought to regard his laborious art as a link in the chain of beauty, as a useful ornament for the stage, and this, in turn, as an important element in the spiritual development of nations. – August Bournonville • Manners are the ornament of action. – Samuel Smiles • Men subsequently put whatever is newly learned or experienced to use as a plowshare, perhaps even as a weapon: but women immediately include it among their ornaments. – Friedrich Nietzsche • Men use a new lesson or experience later on as a ploughshare or perhaps also as a weapon; women at once make it into an ornament. – Friedrich Nietzsche • Modernism, rebelling against the ornament of the 19th century, limited the vocabulary of the designer. Modernism emphasized straight lines, eliminating the expressive S curve. This made it harder to communicate emotions through design. – Eva Zeisel • Modesty is not only an ornament, but also a guard to virtue. – Joseph Addison • Modesty is the richest ornament of a woman … the want of it is her greatest deformity. – Charles Caleb Colton • Money can help you to get medicines but not health. Money can help you to get soft pillows, but not sound sleep. Money can help you to get material comforts, but not eternal bliss. Money can help you to get ornaments, but not beauty. Money will help you to get an electric earphone, but not natural hearing. Attain the supreme wealth, wisdom; you will have everything. – Sivananda • Moral excellence is an ornament for personal beauty; righteous conduct, for high birth; success for learning; and proper spending for wealth. – Chanakya • More than any gift or toy, ornament of tree, let us resolve that this Christmas shall be, like that first Christmas, a celebration of interior treasures. – Ronald Reagan • Most works are most beautiful without ornament. – Walt Whitman • My precept to all who build, is, that the owner should be an ornament to the house, and not the house to the owner. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • Nine times out of ten, I’m trying to meet someone else’s expectations, whether it’s the director or the writer or the animator, when I go back in to re-record a line. I’m the icing on the cake, but the cake is the thing. I’m really just a hood ornament on a very solid vehicle. – Adrian Pasdar • No one has ever been accused for not providing ornaments, but for those who neglect their neighbour a hell awaits with an inextinguishable fire and torment in the company of the demons. Do not, therefore, adorn the church and ignore your afflicted brother, for he is the most precious temple of all. – Saint John Chrysostom • No ornament of a house can compare with books; they are constant company in a room, even when you are not reading them. – Harriet Beecher Stowe • Nobility is a graceful ornament to the civil order. It is the Corinthian capital of polished society. – Edmund Burke • Non -violence is infinitely superior to violence , forgiveness is more manly than punishment. Forgiveness is the ornament. – Mahatma Gandhi • Nor do apophthegms only serve for ornament and delight, but also for action and civil use, as being the edge-tools of speech which cut and penetrate the knots of business and affairs: for occasions have their revolutions, and what has once been advantageously used may be so again, either as an old thing or a new one. – Francis Bacon • Nor do we accept, as genuine the person not characterized by this blushing bashfulness, this youthfulness of heart, this sensibility to the sentiment of suavity and self-respect. Modesty is bred of self-reverence. Fine manners are the mantle of fair minds. None are truly great without this ornament. – Amos Bronson Alcott • O vanity, how little is thy force acknowledged or thy operations discerned! How wantonly dost thou deceive mankind under different disguises! Sometimes thou dost wear the face of pity; sometimes of generosity; nay, thou hast the assurance to put on those glorious ornaments which belong only to heroic virtue. – Henry Fielding • Of chastity, the ornaments are chaste. – William Shakespeare • Of course, it does depend on the people, but sometimes I’m invited places to kind of brighten up a dinner table like a musician who’ll play the piano after dinner, and I know you’re not really invited for yourself. You’re just an ornament. – Marilyn Monroe • On the meeting point of two worlds, the ornament of Turkish homeland, the treasure of Turkish history, the city cherished by the Turkish nation, İstanbul, has its place in the hearts of all citizens. – Mustafa Kemal Ataturk • One of the first principles of decorative art is that in all manufactures ornament must hold a place subordinate to that of utility; and when, by its exuberance, ornament interferes with utility, it is misplaced and vulgar. – George Mason • One of the things I’ve always loved about New York is there is so much precedent for ornament on industrial buildings. – Annabelle Selldorf • Opinions: men’s thoughts about great subjects. Taste: their thoughts about small ones: dress, behavior, amusements, ornaments. – George Eliot • Ornament is but the guiled shore to a most dangerous sea. – William Shakespeare • Ornaments were invented by modesty. – Joseph Joubert • Our notion of the perfect society embraces the family as its center and ornament, and this paradise is not secure until children appear to animate and complete the picture. – Amos Bronson Alcott • Patience ornaments the woman and proves the man. – Tertullian • Plato defines melody to consist of harmony, number and words: harmony naked of itself, words the ornament of harmony, number the common friend and uniter of them both. – John Dowland • Plutarch has a fine expression, with regard to some woman of learning, humility, and virtue;–that her ornaments were such as might be purchased without money, and would render any woman’s life both glorious and happy. – Laurence Sterne • Poets like painters, thus unskilled to trace The naked nature and the living grace, With gold and jewels cover ev’ry part, And hide with ornaments their want of art. True wit is Nature to advantage dressed, What oft was thought, but ne’er so well expressed. – Alexander Pope • Poverty was an ornament on a learned man like a red ribbon on a white horse. – Anzia Yezierska • Presently he rose and approached the case before which she stood. Its glass shelves were crowded with small broken objects —hardly recognisable domestic utensils, ornaments and personal trifles — made of glass, of clay, of discoloured bronze and other time-blurred substances. ‘It seems cruel,’ she said, ‘that after a while nothing matters… any more than these little things, that used to be necessary and important to forgotten people, and now have to be guessed at under a magnifying glass and labeled: “Use unknown”.’ – Edith Wharton • Pretty conceptions, fine metaphors, glittering expressions, and something of a neat cast of verse are properly the dress, gems, or loose ornaments of poetry. – Alexander Pope • Real art, like the wife of an affectionate husband, needs no ornaments. But counterfeit art, like a prostitute, must always be decked out. The cause of production of real art is the artist’s inner need to express a feeling that has accumulated…The cause of counterfeit art, as of prostitution, is gain. The consequence of true art is the introduction of a new feeling into the intercourse of life… The consequences of counterfeit art are the perversion of man, pleasure which never satisfies, and the weakening of man’s spiritual strength. – Leo Tolstoy • Rhime being no necessary Adjunct or true Ornament of Poem or good Verse, in longer Works especially, but the Invention of a barbarous Age, to set off wretched matter and lame Meeter…the troublesom and modern bondage of Rimeing. – John Milton • Rich people don’t have to have a life-and-death relationship with the truth and its questions; they can ignore the truth and still thrive materially. I am not surprised many of them understand literature only as an ornament. Life is an ornament to them, relationships are ornaments, their “work” is but a flimsy, pretty ornament meant to momentarily thrill and capture attention. Why didn’t I reread my F. Scott Fitzgerald sooner? I might have saved myself some time. – Sergio Troncoso • Right on to the New Period vineyard arbors were the centre and chief ornament of all gardens. – Marie-Luise Gothein • Sensible men show their sense by saying much in few words. If noble actions are the substance of life, good sayings are its ornament and guide. – Charles Simmons • Sentiment is a disgrace, instead of an ornament, unless it lead us to good actions. – Ann Radcliffe • Shame is an ornament to the young; a disgrace to the old. – Aristotle • She had a bracelet on one taper arm, which would fall down over her round wrist. Mr. Thornton watched the replacing of this troublesome ornament with far more attention than he listened to her father. It seemed as if it fascinated him to see her push it up impatiently, until it tightened her soft flesh; and then to mark the loosening—the fall. He could almost have exclaimed—’There it goes, again! – Elizabeth Gaskell • She was a phantom of delight When first she gleamed upon my sight, A lovely apparition, sent To be a moment’s ornament; Her eyes as stars of twilight fair, Like twilights too her dusky hair, But all things else about her drawn From May-time and the cheerful dawn. – William Wordsworth • Silence is an ornament for women. – Sophocles • Simplicity is not about making something without ornament, but rather about making something very complex, then slicing elements away, until you reveal the very essence. – Christoph Niemann • So may the outward shows be least themselves: The world is still deceived with ornament. In law, what plea so tainted and corrupt, But, being seasoned with a gracious voice, Obscures the show of evil? In religion, What damned error, but some sober brow Will bless it and approve it with a text, Hiding the grossness with fair ornament? There is no vice so simple but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts. – William Shakespeare • So may the outward shows be least themselves; The world is still deceived with ornament. – William Shakespeare • Some Christmas tree ornaments do more than glitter and glow, they represent a gift of love given a long time ago – Tom Baker • Some men covet knowledge out of a natural curiosity and inquisitive temper; some to entertain the mind with variety and delight; some for ornament and reputation; some for victory and contention; many for lucre and a livelihood; and but few for employing the Divine gift of reason to the use and benefit of mankind. – Francis Bacon • Studies are the food of youth, the delight of old age; the ornament of prosperity, the refuge and comfort of adversity; a delight at home, and no hindrance abroad; they are companions by night, and in travel, and in the country. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • Sustainability has become an ornament. – Rem Koolhaas • That thou art blamed shall not be thy defect, For slander’s mark was ever yet the fair; The ornament of beauty is suspect, A crow that flies in heaven’s sweetest air. – William Shakespeare • The ancients, who in these matters were not perhaps such blockheads as some may conceive, considered poetical quotation as one of the requisite ornaments of oratory. – Isaac D’Israeli • The art of decoration requires the most sophisticated and self-indulgent skills. Its aim has always been to sate the senses as gloriously as possible. … ornament is not only a source of sensuous pleasure; it supplies a necessary kind of magic to people and places that lack it. More than just a dread of empty spaces has led to the urge to decorate; it is the fear of empty selves. – Ada Louise Huxtable • The arts alone give direct access to experience. To eliminate them from education – or worse, to tolerate them as cultural ornaments – is antieducational obscurantism. It is foisted on us by the pedants and snobs of Hellenistic Greece who considered artistic performance fit only for slaves. – Peter Drucker • The Arts and Sciences, essential to the prosperity of the State and to the ornament of human life, have a primary claim to the encouragement of every lover of his country and mankind. – George Washington • The brightest ornaments in the crown of the blessed in heaven are the sufferings which they have borne patiently on earth. – Alphonsus Liguori • The Church knew what the psalmist knew: Music praises God. Music is well or better able to praise him than the building of the church and all its decoration; it is the Church’s greatest ornament. – Igor Stravinsky • The connoisseur of art must be able to appreciate what is simply beautiful, but the common run of people is satisfied with ornament. – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe • The Cross isn’t an ornament, mere symbol. It’s the mystery of God’s love, that He died for our sins. – Pope Francis • The Earth reminded us of a Christmas tree ornament hanging in the blackness of space. As we got farther and farther away it diminished in size. Finally it shrank to the size of a marble, the most beautiful marble you can imagine. – James Irwin • The economy is still substantially that of the fur trade, still based on the same general kinds of commercial items: technology, weapons, ornaments, novelties, and drugs. The one great difference is that by now the revolution has deprived the mass of consumers of any independent access to the staples of life: clothing, shelter, food, even water. Air access remains the only necessity that the average user can still get for himself, and the revolution has imposed a heavy tax on that by way of pollution. Commercial conquest is far more thorough and final than military defeat. – Wendell Berry • The farmer and the gardener are both busy, the gardener perhaps the more excitable of the two, for he is more of the amateur, concerned with the creation of beauty rather than with the providing of food. Gardening is a luxury occupation; an ornament, not a necessity, of life. – Vita Sackville-West • The feel of the place was deep, the prehistoric heartbeat of the rocks complicating the music, the people bright, all different kinds of dancers, smilers, swayers, swirlers, smokers, beer-drinking boppers, tripsters, spinners. I looked back at the crowd…and saw the show for a moment as a jewel…like a gem in a bracelet: an ornament on the body of the country, glittering in the coming darkness. – Jason Burke • The great end of prudence is to give cheerfulness to those hours which splendour cannot gild, and acclamation cannot exhilarate; those soft intervals of unbended amusement, in which a man shrinks to his natural dimensions, and throws aside the ornaments or disguises which he feels in privacy to be useless incumbrances, and to lose all effect when they become familiar. To be happy at home is the ultimate result of all ambition, the end to which every enterprise and labour tends, and of which every desire prompts the prosecution. – Samuel Johnson • The greatest ornament of an illustrious life is modesty and humility, which go a great way in the character even of the most exalted princes. – Napoleon Bonaparte • The grossest form of this injury of the body to ornament it, is in tattooing. Next, the piercing the ear all around its rim, piercing the nose and the lips to introduce rings or bars of jewelry. – Julia McNair Wright • The hair is the finest ornament women have. Of old, virgins used to wear it loose, except when they were in mourning. – Martin Luther • The hair is the richest ornament of women. – Martin Luther • The heroic soul does not sell its justice and its nobleness. It does not ask to dine nicely and to sleep warm. The essence of greatness is the perception that virtue is enough. Poverty is its ornament. It does not need plenty, and can very well abide its loss. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • The history of most women is hidden either by silence, or by flourishes and ornaments that amount to silence. – Virginia Woolf • The knowledge of the past times and of the places of the earth is both an ornament and nutriment to the human mind. – Leonardo da Vinci • The ‘leisured’ wife was a badge of achievement, the ornament to hard work and virtue for families on the way up. – Hilda Scott • The modern majesty consists in work. What a man can do is his greatest ornament, and he always consults his dignity by doing it. – Thomas Carlyle • The modern university does not exist to teach alone…It exists also to serve the democracy of which it is a product and an ornament…The university rests on the public will and on public appreciation. – Nicholas Murray Butler • The music, and the banquet, and the wine– The garlands, the rose odors, and the flowers, The sparkling eyes, and flashing ornaments– The white arms and the raven hair–the braids, And bracelets; swan-like bosoms, and the necklace, An India in itself, yet dazzling not. – Lord Byron • The only really Christian art is that which, like St. Francis, does not fear being wedded to poverty. This rises far above art-as-ornament. – Andre Gide • The ornament of a house is the friends who frequent it. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • The ornament of beauty, Shakespeare wrote, is suspect. And he was right. But beauty itself, unadorned and unaffected, is sacred, I think, worthy of our awe and our loyalty. – Dennis Lehane • The ornaments of our homes are the friends that visit it – Ralph Waldo Emerson • The peoples of the old world have their cities built for times gone by, when railroads and gunpowder were unknown. We can have cities for the new age that has come, adopted to its better conditions of use and ornament. We want, therefore, a city planning profession. – Horace Bushnell • The pictures placed for ornament and use, The twelve good rules, the royal game of goose. – Oliver Goldsmith • The quasi-peaceable gentleman of leisure, then, not only consumes of the staff of life beyond the minimum required for subsistence and physical efficiency, but his consumption also undergoes a specialisation as regards the quality of the goods consumed. He consumes freely and of the best, in food, drink, narcotics, shelter, services, ornaments, apparel, weapons and accoutrements, amusements, amulets, and idols or divinities. – Thorstein Veblen • The real ornament of woman is her character, her purity. – Mahatma Gandhi • The real Rose Hovick was seriously mentally disturbed; June Havoc called her a beautiful little ornament that was damaged. – Karen Abbott • The royal navy of England hath ever been its greatest defence and ornament; it is its ancient and natural strength, – the floating bulwark of our island. – William Blackstone • The very design of the gospel doth tend to self-abasing; and the work of grace is begun and carried on in humiliation. Humility is not a mere ornament of a Christian, but an essential part of the new creature: it is a contradiction to be a sanctified man, or a true Christian, and not humble. – Richard Baxter • The weak shows his strength and hides his weaknesses; the magnificent exhibits his weaknesses like ornaments. – Nassim Nicholas Taleb • The whole of heraldry and of chivalry is in courtesy. A man of fine manners shall pronounce your name with all the ornament that titles of nobility could ever add. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • The world would be astonished if it knew how great a proportion of its brightest ornaments, of those distinguished even in popular estimation for wisdom and virtue, are complete sceptics in religion. – John Stuart Mill • The world, which the Greeks called Beauty, has been made such by being gradually divested of every ornament which was not fitted to endure. – Henry David Thoreau • Then I feel, Harry, that I have given away my whole soul to someone who treats it as if it were a flower to put in his coat, a bit of decoration to charm his vanity, an ornament for a summer’s day. – Oscar Wilde • There are elements of intrinsic beauty in the simplification of a house built on the log cabin idea. First, there is the bare beauty of the logs themselves with their long lines and firm curves. Then there is the open charm felt of the structural features which are not hidden under plaster and ornament, but are clearly revealed, a charm felt in Japanese architecture….The quiet rhythmic monotone of the wall of logs fills one with the rustic peace of a secluded nook in the woods. – Gustav Stickley • There is a city in which you find everything you desire-handsome people, pleasures, ornaments of every kind-all that the natural person craves. However, you cannot find a single wise person there. – Rumi • There is material enough in a single flower for the ornament of a score of cathedrals. – John Ruskin • There is no doubt that Greek and Latin are great and handsome ornaments, but we buy them too dear. – Michel de Montaigne • There was very little about her face and figure that was in any way remarkable, but it was the sort of face which, when animated by conversation or laughter, is completely transformed. She had a lovely disposition, a quick mind and a fondness for the comical. She was always very ready to smile and, since a smile is the most becoming ornament that any lady can wear, she had been known upon occasion to outshine women who were acknowledged beauties in three countries. – Susanna Clarke • There were details like clothing, hair styles and the fragile objects that hardly ever survive for the archaeologist-musical instruments, bows and arrows, and body ornaments depicted as they were worn… No amounts of stone and bone could yield the kinds of information that the paintings gave so freely – Mary Leakey • Therefore, I bind these lies and slanderous accusations to my person as an ornament; it belongs to my Christian profession to be vilified, slandered, reproached and reviled, and since all this is nothing but that, as God and my conscience testify, I rejoice in being reproached for Christ’s sake. – John Bunyan • These studies are a spur to the young, a delight to the old: an ornament in prosperity, a consoling refuge in adversity; they are pleasure for us at home, and no burden abroad; they stay up with us at night, they accompany us when we travel, they are with us in our country visits. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • They are done merely for ornament. … the common people regard them as supernatural. – Xunzi • Think it a vile habit to alter works of good composers, to omit parts of them, or to insert new-fashioned ornaments. This is the greatest insult you can offer to Art. – Robert Schumann • To be apt in quotation is a splendid and dangerous gift. Splendid, because it ornaments a man’s speech with other men’s jewels; dangerous, for the same reason. – Robertson Davies • to become aware of the ineffable is to part company with words…the tangent to the curve of human experience lies beyond the limits of language. the world of things we perceive is but a veil. It’s flutter is music, its ornament science, but what it conceals is inscrutable. It’s silence remains unbroken; no words can carry it away. Sometimes we wish the world could cry and tell us about that which made it pregnant with fear–filling grandeur. Sometimes we wish our own heart would speak of that which made it heavy with wonder. – Abraham Joshua Heschel • To Forget Venice is a tour de force of ventriloquism. Elegant, contemporary, and wry, the voice at its center is also capable of disarming flights of imagination as it enters and inhabits other lives across time and gender. The glittering, fetid city emerges as a complex metaphor for the human heart’s simultaneous tenderness and capacity for cruelty, its ‘silver glow / a local specialty: filth / disguised as ornament.’ This Venice is unforgettable. – Chase Twichell • To spend too much time in studies is sloth; to use them too much for ornament is affection; to make judgment wholly by their rules is the humor of a scholar. • Tragedy was foresworn, in ritual denial of the ripe knowledge that we are drawing away from one another, that we share only one thing, share the fear of belonging to another, or to others, or to God; love or money, tender equated in advertising and the world, where only money is currency, and under dead trees and brittle ornaments prehensile hands exchange forgeries of what the heart dare not surrender. – William Gaddis • True ornament is not a matter of prettifying externals. It is organic with the structure it adorns, whether a person, a building, or a park. At its best it is an emphasis of structure, a realization in graceful terms of the nature of that which is ornamented – Frank Lloyd Wright • True, there are architects so called in this country, and I have heard of one at least possessed with the idea of making architectural ornaments have a core of truth, a necessity, and hence a beauty, as if it were a revelation to him. All very well perhaps from his point of view, but only a little better than the common dilettantism. – Henry David Thoreau • Truth is not only a man’s ornament but his instrument; it is the great man’s glory, and the poor man’s stock: a man’s truth is his livelihood, his recommendation, his letters of credit. – Benjamin Whichcote • We all originally came from the woods! it is hard to eradicate from any of us the old taste for the tattoo and the war-paint; and the moment that money gets into our pockets, it somehow or another breaks out in ornaments on our person, without always giving refinement to our manners. – Edwin Percy Whipple • We are made aware that magnitude of material things is relative, and all objects shrink and expand to serve the passion of the poet. Thus, in his sonnets, the lays of birds, the scents and dyes of flowers, he finds to be the shadow of his beloved; time, which keeps her from him, is his chest; the suspicion she has awakened, is her ornament – Ralph Waldo Emerson • We are often struck by the force and precision of style to which hard-working men, unpracticed in writing, easily attain when required to make the effort. As if plainness and vigor and sincerity, the ornaments of style, were better learned on the farm and in the workshop than in the schools. The sentences written by such rude hands are nervous and tough, like hardened thongs, the sinews of the deer, or the roots of the pine. – Henry David Thoreau • We hew and saw and plane facts to make them dovetail with our prejudices, so that they become mere ornaments with which to parade our objectivity. – Paul Eldridge • We know much of a writer by his style. An open and imperious disposition is shown in short sentences, direct and energetic. A secretive and proud mind is cold and obscure in style. An affectionate and imaginative nature pours out luxuriantly, and blossoms all over with ornament. – Henry Ward Beecher • We love to see any redness in the vegetation of the temperate zone. It is the color of colors. This plant speaks to our blood….What a perfect maturity it arrives at! It is the emblem of a successful life concluded by a death not premature, which is an ornament to Nature. What if we were to mature as perfectly, root and branch, glowing in the midst of our decay, like the poke! – Henry David Thoreau • We meet With few utterly dull and stupid souls: the sublime and transcendent are still fewer; the generality of mankind stand between these two extremes: the interval is filled with multitudes of ordinary geniuses, but all very useful, and the ornaments and supports of the commonwealth. – Jean de la Bruyere • We no longer dare to believe in beauty and we make of it a mere appearance in order the more easily to dispose of it. Our situation today shows that beauty demands for itself at least as much courage and decision as do truth and goodness, and she will not allow herself to be separated and banned from her two sisters without taking them along with herself in an act of mysterious vengeance. We can be sure that whoever sneers at her name as if she were the ornament of a bourgeois past — whether he admits it or not — can no longer pray and soon will no longer be able to love. – Hans Urs von Balthasar • We tend to treat our knowledge as personal property to be protected and defended. It is an ornament that allows us to rise in the pecking order. […] We take what we know a little too seriously. – Nassim Nicholas Taleb • What an ornament and safeguard is humor! Far better than wit for a poet and writer. It is a genius itself, and so defends from the insanities. – Walter Scott • What greater ornament to a son than a father’s glory, or to a father than a son’s honorable conduct? – Sophocles • What I resist is techniques. I find techniques very problematic. So when critics talk about my work in those terms, I find that they miss the condition. I am comfortable with the notion of pattern and ornament as a system of organization, [but] for me it acts as a textile. So it’s not about pattern, but the notion of architecture through the lens of textile, rather than architecture through the lens of brick and mortar. – David Adjaye • What on earth is modern exegesis up to? Oh, little lazy one! Some red wine and up! Off you go, brandishing your fork, stripped of Ophelia’s useless ornaments, fire in your large nostrils, out to rake the muck of metaphors. – Louis Aragon • When a rainbow appears vividly in the sky, you can see its beautiful colors, yet you could not wear as clothing or put it on as an ornament. It arises through the conjunction of various factors, but there is nothing about it that can be grasped. Likewise, thoughts that arise in the mind have no tangible existence or intrinsic solidity. There is no logical reason why thoughts, which have no substance, should have so much power over you, nor is there any reason why you should become their slave. – Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche • When a slave begins to take pride in his fetters and hugs them like precious ornaments, the triumph of the slave-owner is complete. – Mahatma Gandhi • Where virtue is, sensibility is the ornament and becoming attire of virtue. On certain occasions it may almost be said to become virtue. But sensibility and all the amiable qualities may likewise become, and too often have become, the panders of vice and the instruments of seduction. – Samuel Taylor Coleridge • Why would you want to keep the bluebird houses mounted in a place that you now know is unsafe for them? Bluebirds are not ornaments for pictures, they are living things that deserve your best effort if you are going to be a landlord to them. There is no magic spell that will protect those bluebirds–they have to depend on you or they are doomed. – Kathy Griffin • Wine is a part of society because it provides a basis not only for a morality but also for an environment; it is an ornament in the slightest ceremonials of French daily life, from the snack to the feast, from the conversation at the local cafT to the speech at a formal dinner. – Roland Barthes • Wise sayings are not only for ornament, but for action and business, having a point or edge, whereby knots in business are pierced and discovered. – Francis Bacon • Woman is the heart of humanity … its grace, ornament, and solace. – Samuel Smiles • Woman, to women silence is the best ornament. – Sophocles • You see the Earth as a bright blue and white Christmas tree ornament in the black sky. It’s so small and so fragile – you realize that on that small spot is everything that means everything to you; all of history and art and death and birth and love. – Rusty Schweickart • You see, for me [art]’s not one of life’s ornaments, rococo relaxation to be greeted affably after a day of hard work; I’m inverted on this : for me it’s my very breath, the one thing necessary, and all else is excretion and a latrine. – Arno Hintjens • You talk to me in parables. You may have known that I’m no wordy man, Fine speeches are the instruments of knaves Or fools that use them, when they want good sense; But honesty Needs no disguise nor ornament: be plain. – Thomas Otway • You’ll see everything from gold teeth to hood ornaments. It’s almost like Halloween during August. – David Carson

• A collection of bad love songs, tattered from overuse, has to touch us like a cemetery or a village. So what if the houses have no style, if the graves are vanishing under tasteless ornaments and inscriptions? Before an imagination sympathetic and respectful enough to conceal momentarily its aesthetic disdain, that dust may release a flock of souls, their beaks holding the still verdant dreams that gave them an inkling of the next world and let them rejoice or weep in this world.- Marcel Proust • A country whose buildings are of wood, can never increase in its improvements to any considerable degree…. Whereas when buildings are of durable materials, every new edifice is an actual and permanent acquisition to the state, adding to its value as well as to its ornament. – Thomas Jefferson • A fine thought in fine language is a most precious jewel, and should not be hid away, but be exposed for use and ornament. – Arthur Conan Doyle • A good youth ought to have a fear of God, to be subject to his parents, to give honor to his elders, to preserve his purity; he ought not to despise humility, but should love forbearance and modesty. All these are an ornament to youthful years. – Ambrose • A lady I will be, but a man’s accessory, his handbag, no thank you. I will not be someone’s ornament. I will not just be someone’s honey, baby, sweetheart. – Deb Caletti • A metaphor is not an ornament. It is an organ of perception. Through metaphors, we see the world as one thing or another. – Neil Postman • A minute analysis of life at once destroys that splendor which dazzles the imagination. Whatsoever grandeur can display, or luxury enjoy, is procured by offices of which the mind shrinks from the contemplation. All the delicacies of the table may be traced back to the shambles and the dunghill; all magnificence of building was hewn from the quarry, and all the pomp of ornament dug from among the damps and darkness of the mine. – Samuel Johnson • A nation which lives a pastoral and innocent life never decorates the shepherd’s staff or the plough-handle; but races who live by depredation and slaughter nearly always bestow exquisite ornaments on the quiver, the helmet, and the spear. – John Ruskin • A political action committee trying to raise money for a 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign is selling “Ready for Hillary” champagne glasses and Christmas ornaments. Because if one thing improves the holidays, it’s drinking mixed with politics. – Jimmy Fallon • A pretty woman is a Christmas tree,’ my mother told me in the airport. This fella is hanging things on my branches as his gaze sweeps from my face all the way down my body to my hips and then back to my face. Ideas fly from his widened eyes and land on me like teeny, decorative burdens. He is giving me shyness, maybe, some book smarts, and a certain yielding sweetness in bed. The oil-slick eyes get me, and I find myself hanging a few ornaments myself, giving him deft hands and a sense of humor. – Joshilyn Jackson • A right mind and generous affection hath more beauty and charms than all other symmetries in the world besides; and a grain of honesty and native worth is of more value than all the adventitious ornaments, estates, or preferments; for the sake of which some of the better sort so oft turn knaves. – Anthony Ashley-Cooper, 7th Earl of Shaftesbury • A simple garb is the proper costume of the vulgar; it is cut for them, and exactly suits their measure, but it is an ornament for those who have filled up their lives with great deeds. I liken them to beauty in dishabille, but more bewitching on that account. – Jean de la Bruyere • A work of art is a world in itself reflecting senses and emotions of the artist’s world. Just as a flower, by virtue of its existence as a complete organism is both ornamental and self-sufficient as to color, form, and texture, so art, because of its singular existence is more than mere ornament. – Hans Hofmann • Acquire knowledge. It enables its possessor to distinguish right from wrong; it lights the way to Heaven; it is our friend in the desert, our society in solitude, our companion when friendless; it guides us to happiness; it sustains us in misery; it is an ornament among our friends and an armor against enemies. – Elijah Muhammad • All are architects of Fate, Working in these walls of Time; Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme. – Henry Wadsworth Longfellow • All art is erotic. The first ornament to have been invented, the cross, was of erotic origin. It was the first work of art. A horizontal stroke: the woman lying down. A vertical stroke: the male who penetrates her. – Adolf Loos • All the manifested world of things and beings are projected by imagination upon the substratum which is the Eternal All-pervading Vishnu, whose nature is Existence-Intelligence; just as the different ornaments are all made out of the same gold. – Adi Shankara • All the revision in the world will not save a bad first draft: for the architecture of the thing comes, or fails to come, in the first conception, and revision only affects the detail and ornament, alas! – T. E. Lawrence • An alliterative prefix served as an ornament of oratory. – Oscar Wilde • An archer competing for a clay vessel shoots effortlessly, his or her skill and concentration unimpeded. If the prize is changed to a brass ornament, the hands begin to shake. If it is changed to gold, he or she squints as if going blind. The abilities do not deteriorate, but belief in them does, as he or she allows the supposed value of an external reward to cloud the vision. – Zhuangzi • Another of the strange and evil tendencies of the present day is the decoration of the railroad station… There was never more flagrant nor impertinent folly than the smallest portion of ornament in anything connected with the railroads… Railroad architecture has or would have a dignity of its own if it were only left to its work. – John Ruskin • Anyone may have diamonds: an heirloom is an ornament of quite a different kind. – Elizabeth Aston • Architecture has its political Use; publick Buildings being the Ornament of a Country; it establishes a Nation, draws People and Commerce; makes the People love their native Country, which Passion is the Original of all great Actions in a Common-wealth…. Architecture aims at Eternity. – Christopher Wren • Arms are my ornaments, warfare my repose. – Miguel de Cervantes • Art matters not merely because it is the most magnificent ornament and the most nearly unfailing occupation of our lives, but because it is life itself. – Randall Jarrell • Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valour As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that Which thou esteem’st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting ‘I dare not’ wait upon ‘I would,’ Like the poor cat i’ the adage? – William Shakespeare • artists were intended to be an ornament to society. As a society in themselves they are unthinkable. – Elizabeth Bowen • As by some might be saide of me: that here I have but gathered a nosegay of strange floures, and have put nothing of mine unto it, but the thred to binde them. Certes, I have given unto publike opinion, that these borrowed ornaments accompany me; but I meane not they should cover or hide me. – Michel de Montaigne • As I passed along the side walls of Westminster Abbey, I hardly saw any thing but marble monuments of great admirals, but which were all too much loaded with finery and ornaments, to make on me at least, the intended impression. – Karl Philipp Moritz • As not every instance of similitude can be considered as a proof of imitation, so not every imitation ought to be stigmatised as plagiarism. The adoption of a noble sentiment, or the insertion of a borrowed ornament, may sometimes display so much judgment as will almost compensate for invention; and an inferior genius may, without any imputation of servility, pursue the paths of the ancients, provided he declines to tread in their footsteps. – Samuel Johnson • As the vine which has long twined its graceful foliage about the oak and been lifted by it into sunshine, will, when the hardy plant is rifted by the thunderbolt, cling round it with its caressing tendrils and bind up its shattered boughs, so is it beautifully ordered by Providence that woman, who is the mere dependent and ornament of man in his happier hours, should be his stay and solace when smitten with sudden calamity, winding herself into the rugged recesses of his nature, tenderly supporting the drooping head, and binding up the broken heart. – Washington Irving • At most, the greatest persons are but great wens, and excrescences; men of wit and delightful conversation, but as morals for ornament, except they be so incorporated into the body of the world that they contribute something to the sustentation of the whole. – John Donne

It is a kind of contempt of those with whom we converse, to frequent their company in uncomely apparel; but, at the same time, avoid all affectation, vanity, curiosity, or levity in your dress. Keep yourself always, as much as possible, on the side of plainness and modesty, which, without doubt, is the greatest ornament of beauty, and the best excuse for the want of it. – Saint Francis de Sales • Beautify your tongues, O people, with truthfulness, and adorn your souls with the ornament of honesty. Beware, O people, that ye deal not treacherously with any one. – Bahá’u’lláh • Beauty doesn’t need ornaments. Softness can’t bear the weight of ornaments. – Munshi Premchand • beauty is the projection of ugliness and by developing certain monstrosities we obtain the purest ornaments. – Jean Genet • Beside all the moral benefit which we may expect from the farmer’s profession, when a man enters it considerately, this promised the conquering of the soil, plenty, and beyond this, the adorning of the country with every advantage and ornament which labor, ingenuity, and affection for a man’s home, could suggest. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • But now sustainability is such a political category that it’s getting more and more difficult to think about it in a serious way. Sustainability has become an ornament. – Rem Koolhaas • But the building’s identity resided in the ornament. – Louis Sullivan • But the greatest error of all the rest is the mistaking or misplacing of the last or farthest end of knowledge: for men have entered into a desire of learning and knowledge, sometimes upon a natural curiosity and inquisitive appetite; sometimes to entertain their minds with variety and delight; sometimes for ornament and reputation; and sometimes to enable them to victory of wit and contradiction; and most times for lucre and profession; and seldom sincerely to give a true account of their gift of reason, to the benefit and use of men. – Francis Bacon • By the word simplicity, is not always meant folly or ignorance; but often, pure and upright Nature, free from artifice, craft or deceitful ornament. – Benjamin Franklin
[clickbank-storefront-bestselling] • Charity is the perfection and ornament of religion. – Joseph Addison • Christmas garland and a rock?” he said, a smile in his voice.”Why not an ornament?” “Wolves aren’t fragile,” I told him. “And they’re… stubbon and hard to move – Patricia Briggs • Christmas is a box of tree ornaments that have become part of the family. – Charles M. Schulz • Clearness is the ornament of deep thought. – Luc de Clapiers • Clearness ornaments profound thoughts. – Luc de Clapiers • Coordinating there Events and objects with remote events And vanished objects. Making ornaments Of accidents and possibilities. – Vladimir Nabokov • Culture is not just an ornament; it is the expression of a nation’s character, and at the same time it is a powerful instrument to mould character. The end of culture is right living. – W. Somerset Maugham • Don’t let your heart depend on things That ornament life in a fleeting way! He who possesses, let him learn to lose, He who is fortunate, let him learn pain. – Friedrich Schiller • Education gives sobriety to the young, comfort to the old, riches to the poor and is an ornament to the rich. – Diogenes • Education is a companion which no misfortune can depress, no crime can destroy, no enemy can alienate, no despotism can enslave. At home, a friend, abroad, an introduction, in solitude a solace and in society an ornament. It chastens vice, it guides virtue, it gives at once grace and government to genius. Without it, what is man? A splendid slave, a reasoning savage. – Joseph Addison • Education is an ornament in prosperity and a refuge in adversity. – Aristotle • Education is the food of youth, the delight of old age, the ornament of prosperity, the refuge and comfort of adversity, and the provocation to grace in the soul. – Saint Augustine • Elegance is not an ornament worthy of man. – Seneca the Younger • Even in the scorched and frozen world of the dead after the holocaust The wheel as it turns goes on accreting ornaments. – Robert Pinsky • Fierce Determination and Gentle Humility are the ornaments which make one attractive in the eyes of the Lord. – Radhanath Swami • Friendship is like a glass ornament, once it is broken it can rarely be put back together exactly the same way. – Charles Kingsley • Gardening is a luxury occupation: an ornament, not a necessity, of life…. Fortunate gardener, who may preoccupy himself solely with beauty in these difficult and ugly days! He is one of the few people left in this distressful world to carry on the tradition of elegance and charm. A useless member of society, considered in terms of economics, he must not be denied his rightful place. He deserves to share it, however humbly, with the painter and poet. – Vita Sackville-West • God help us! it is a foolish little thing, this human life, at the best; and it is half ridiculous and half pitiful to see what importance we ascribe to it, and to its little ornaments and distinctions. – Francis Jeffrey, Lord Jeffrey • Greatness of Soul seems therefore to be as it were a crowning ornament of the virtues; it enhances their greatness, and it cannot exist without them. Hence it is hard to be truly great-souled, for greatness of soul is impossible without moral nobility. – Aristotle • He might have proved a useful adjunct, if not an ornament to society. – Charles Lamb • He removes the greatest ornament of friendship who takes away from it respect. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • He takes the greatest ornament from friendship, who takes modesty from it. [Lat., Maximum ornamentum amicitiae tollit, qui ex ea tollit verecudiam.] – Marcus Tullius Cicero • Heaven grant me that I may thus rejoice in my children, thus see them ornaments to their Country, and blessings to their parents. – Abigail Adams • Honesty needs no disguise nor ornament; be plain. – Thomas Otway • Hopes are like hair ornaments. Girls want to wear too many of them. When they become old women they look silly wearing even one. – Arthur Golden • Hostility towards Microsoft is not difficult to find on the Net, and it blends two strains: resentful people who feel Microsoft is too powerful, and disdainful people who think it’s tacky. This is all strongly reminiscent of the heyday of Communism and Socialism, when the bourgeoisie were hated from both ends: by the proles, because they had all the money, and by the intelligentsia, because of their tendency to spend it on lawn ornaments. Microsoft is the very embodiment of modern high-tech prosperity – it is, in a word, bourgeois – and so it attracts all of the same gripes. – Neal Stephenson • How much more doth beauty beauteous seem by that sweet ornament which truth doth give! – William Shakespeare • Humility is an ornament which attracts Krishna’s heart. Beginning of all knowledge comes from humility. – Radhanath Swami • Hypocrisy itself does great honor, or rather justice, to religion, and tacitly acknowledges it to be an ornament to human nature. The hypocrite would not be at so much pains to put on the appearance of virtue, if he did not know it was the most proper and effectual means to gain the love and esteem of mankind. – Joseph Addison • I am a pretty, useless ornament who always believed she’d have a man to take care of her. – Virginia C. Andrews • I am glad that the life of pandas is so dull by human standards, for our efforts at conservation have little moral value if we preserve creatures only as human ornaments; I shall be impressed when we show solicitude for warty toads and slithering worms. – Stephen Jay Gould • I believe that organized religion is an ornament to the truth, and that aesthetics are part of its power. – Andrew Solomon • I believe the right question to ask, respecting all ornament, is simply this; was it done with enjoyment, was the carver happy while he was about it? – John Ruskin • I cannot however help repeating Piety, because I think it indispensible. Religion in a Family is at once its brightest Ornament & its best Security. – Samuel Adams • I foresee the time when the painter will paint that scene, no longer going to Rome for a subject; the poet will sing it; the historian record it; and, with the Landing of the Pilgrims and the Declaration of Independence, it will be the ornament of some future national gallery, when at least the present form of slavery shall be no more here. We shall then be at liberty to weep for Captain Brown. Then, and not till then, we will take our revenge. – Henry David Thoreau • I had hardly expected so dolichocephalic a skull or such well-marked supra-orbital development. Would you have any objection to my running my finger along your parietal fissure? A cast of your skull, sir, until the original is available, would be an ornament to any anthropological museum. It is not my intention to be fulsome, but I confess that I covet your skull. – Arthur Conan Doyle • I have emerged victorious from my thirty years of struggle. I have freed mankind from superfluous ornament. – Adolf Loos • I hold every man a debtor to his profession; from the which as men of course do seek to receive countenance and profit, so ought they of duty to endeavor themselves, by way of amends, to be a help and ornament thereunto. – Francis Bacon • I like ornament at the right time, but I don’t want a poem to be made out of decoration … When I read the poems that matter to me, it stuns me how much the presence of the heart-in all its forms-is endlessly available there. To experience ourselves in an important way just knocks me out. It puzzles me why people have given that up for cleverness. Some of them are ingenious, more ingenious than I am, but so many of them aren’t any good at being alive. – Jack Gilbert • I look for myself but find no one. I belong to the chrysanthemum hour of bright flowers placed in tall vases. I should make an ornament of my soul. – Fernando Pessoa • I love art, and I love history, but it is living art and living history that I love. It is in the interest of living art and living history that I oppose so-called restoration. What history can there be in a building bedaubed with ornament, which cannot at the best be anything but a hopeless and lifeless imitation of the hope and vigor of the earlier world? – William Morris • I never rebel so much against France as not to regard Paris with a friendly eye; she has had my heart since my childhood… I love her tenderly, even to her warts and her spots. I am French only by this great city: the glory of France, and one of the noblest ornaments of the world. – Michel de Montaigne • I read the newspapers with lively interest. It is seldom that they are absolutely, point-blank wrong. That is the popular belief, but those who are in the know can usually discern an embryo of truth, a little grit of fact, like the core of a pearl, round which have been deposited the delicate layers of ornament. – Evelyn Waugh • I repeat, sir, that in whatever position you place a woman she is an ornament to society and a treasure to the world. As a sweetheart, she has few equals and no superiors; as a cousin, she is convenient; as a wealthy grandmother with an incurable distemper, she is precious; as a wet-nurse, she has no equal among men. What, sir, would the people of the earth be without woman? They would be scarce, sir, almighty scarce. – Mark Twain • I see my body as an instrument, rather than an ornament. – Alanis Morissette • I think that ‘Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance’ was mentally taxing, if only because I had to go to a Christmas party shortly after I had wrapped photography in Romania at two in the morning as the Ghost Rider. The invitation had a Christmas ornament on it with Ghost Rider’s face on it as a tree. – Nicolas Cage • I think that the new models of Chevrolet should have Barney Frank as a hood ornament. – Sean Hannity • I think there is no better way to invite a human being to view their body differently than by inviting them to be an athlete, by revering one’s body as an instrument rather than just an ornament. – Alanis Morissette • I try to teach my students style, but always as a part of life, not as ornament. Style has to come out of communicating coherent thought, not in sticking little flowers on speeches. Style and substance and a sense of life are the things literature is composed of. One must use one’s own personality in relationship to life and language, of course, and everyone has such a relationship. Some people find it, some don’t find it, but it’s there. – Marguerite Young • I want to try to come away from that one directional, clear rectangular form. It’s not used because it’s the most beautiful form; it’s just the practical thing. That’s why our TVs are rectangles. Even in modern architecture, they want us to believe, “That’s the nicest, most beautiful thing.” I love modern architecture, but actually it’s that they cannot afford amorphous shapes or ornaments. – Pipilotti Rist • I write abundantly. And then my next step is to struggle to reduce the ornament, to reduce the abundance-to prune the book, in other words, the way one prunes a tree-so it can grow. This is my idea of a book. – James Wright • If the bees which seek the liquid oozing from the head of a lust-intoxicated elephant are driven away by the flapping of his ears, then the elephant has lost only the ornament of his head. The bees are quite happy in the lotus filled lake. – Chanakya • If the next car passed is blue, Violet will be okay, she thought. If it’s red, A will do something horrible to her. She heard a growl of an engine and shut her eyes, afraid to see what the future might hold. She’d never cared so much about anything in her life. Just as the car was passing, she opened her eyes and saw a Mercedes hood ornament. She let out a long sigh, tears coming to her eyes once more. The car was blue. – Sara Shepard • If those millions squandered on designing missionaries had been deposited in funds for the support of yourselves, when old age, misfortune, or sickness (from which none are exempt,) overtakes you, or for the distressed of your race, what a heaven of happiness you would have created on earth: ye would now be an ornament to your sex, and ages to come would call you blessed. But it is in vain to try – a priest-ridden female is lost to reason. Why? because she has surrendered her reason to the … missionaries … the orthodox; they are the grand deceivers. – Anne Royall • I’m a disorganized mess. My purse is gross: I once found a shoulder pad, string cheese, and a Christmas ornament in it! – Hoda Kotb • In 1979, postmodernism lost its understanding of the meaning of ornament. It degenerated into kitsch applique. – Charles Jencks • In railway halls, on pavements near the traffic, They beg, their eyes made big by empty staring And only measuring Time , like the blank clock. No, I shall weave no tracery of pen-ornament To make them birds upon my singing tree: Time merely drives these lives which do not live As tides push rotten stuff along the shore. – Stephen Spender • In religion, What damned error but some sober brow Will bless it, and approve it with a text, Hiding the grossness with fair ornament? – William Shakespeare • In religions which have lost their creative spark, the gods eventually become no more than poetic motifs or ornaments for decorating human solitude and walls. – Nikos Kazantzakis • In violence there is often the quality of yearning – the yearning for completion. For closure. For that which is absent and would if present bring to fulfillment. For the body without which the wing is a useless frozen ornament. (“A Short Guide To The City”) – Peter Straub • Indeed the river is a perpetual gala, and boasts each month a new ornament. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Is not disease the rule of existence? There is not a lily pad floating on the river but has been riddled by insects. Almost every shrub and tree has its gall, oftentimes esteemed its chief ornament and hardly to be distinguished from the fruit. If misery loves company, misery has company enough. Now, at midsummer, find me a perfect leaf or fruit. – Henry David Thoreau • It isn’t money itself that causes the trouble, but the use of money as votive offering and pagan ornament. – Lewis H. Lapham • It takes talent to please the people in a sermon by a flowery style, a cheerful ethic, brilliant sallies and lively descriptions; but such a talent is inadequate. A better sort of talent neglects these extraneous ornaments, unworthy to be used in the service of the Gospel: such a preacher’s sermon will be simple, strong and Christian. – Jean de la Bruyere • Jewelry and profuse ornaments are unmistakable evidences of vulgarity. – Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton • Learning maketh young men temperate, is the comfort of old age, standing for wealth with poverty, and serving as an ornament to riches. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • Let us give today first the vital things of life and all the grace and ornaments of life will follow. – Mahatma Gandhi • Libel actions, when we look at them in perspective, are an ornament of a civilized society. They have replaced, after all, at least in most cases, a resort to weapons in defense of a reputation. – Henry Anatole Grunwald • Man doth seek a triple perfection: first a sensual, consisting in those things which very life itself requireth either as necessary supplements, or as beauties and ornaments thereof; then an intellectual, consisting in those things which none underneath man is either capable of or acquainted with; lastly a spiritual and divine, consisting in those things whereunto we tend by supernatural means here, but cannot here attain unto them. – Richard Hooker • Mannerism is not character, and affectation is the avowed enemy of grace. Every dancer ought to regard his laborious art as a link in the chain of beauty, as a useful ornament for the stage, and this, in turn, as an important element in the spiritual development of nations. – August Bournonville • Manners are the ornament of action. – Samuel Smiles • Men subsequently put whatever is newly learned or experienced to use as a plowshare, perhaps even as a weapon: but women immediately include it among their ornaments. – Friedrich Nietzsche • Men use a new lesson or experience later on as a ploughshare or perhaps also as a weapon; women at once make it into an ornament. – Friedrich Nietzsche • Modernism, rebelling against the ornament of the 19th century, limited the vocabulary of the designer. Modernism emphasized straight lines, eliminating the expressive S curve. This made it harder to communicate emotions through design. – Eva Zeisel • Modesty is not only an ornament, but also a guard to virtue. – Joseph Addison • Modesty is the richest ornament of a woman … the want of it is her greatest deformity. – Charles Caleb Colton • Money can help you to get medicines but not health. Money can help you to get soft pillows, but not sound sleep. Money can help you to get material comforts, but not eternal bliss. Money can help you to get ornaments, but not beauty. Money will help you to get an electric earphone, but not natural hearing. Attain the supreme wealth, wisdom; you will have everything. – Sivananda • Moral excellence is an ornament for personal beauty; righteous conduct, for high birth; success for learning; and proper spending for wealth. – Chanakya • More than any gift or toy, ornament of tree, let us resolve that this Christmas shall be, like that first Christmas, a celebration of interior treasures. – Ronald Reagan • Most works are most beautiful without ornament. – Walt Whitman • My precept to all who build, is, that the owner should be an ornament to the house, and not the house to the owner. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • Nine times out of ten, I’m trying to meet someone else’s expectations, whether it’s the director or the writer or the animator, when I go back in to re-record a line. I’m the icing on the cake, but the cake is the thing. I’m really just a hood ornament on a very solid vehicle. – Adrian Pasdar • No one has ever been accused for not providing ornaments, but for those who neglect their neighbour a hell awaits with an inextinguishable fire and torment in the company of the demons. Do not, therefore, adorn the church and ignore your afflicted brother, for he is the most precious temple of all. – Saint John Chrysostom • No ornament of a house can compare with books; they are constant company in a room, even when you are not reading them. – Harriet Beecher Stowe • Nobility is a graceful ornament to the civil order. It is the Corinthian capital of polished society. – Edmund Burke • Non -violence is infinitely superior to violence , forgiveness is more manly than punishment. Forgiveness is the ornament. – Mahatma Gandhi • Nor do apophthegms only serve for ornament and delight, but also for action and civil use, as being the edge-tools of speech which cut and penetrate the knots of business and affairs: for occasions have their revolutions, and what has once been advantageously used may be so again, either as an old thing or a new one. – Francis Bacon • Nor do we accept, as genuine the person not characterized by this blushing bashfulness, this youthfulness of heart, this sensibility to the sentiment of suavity and self-respect. Modesty is bred of self-reverence. Fine manners are the mantle of fair minds. None are truly great without this ornament. – Amos Bronson Alcott • O vanity, how little is thy force acknowledged or thy operations discerned! How wantonly dost thou deceive mankind under different disguises! Sometimes thou dost wear the face of pity; sometimes of generosity; nay, thou hast the assurance to put on those glorious ornaments which belong only to heroic virtue. – Henry Fielding • Of chastity, the ornaments are chaste. – William Shakespeare • Of course, it does depend on the people, but sometimes I’m invited places to kind of brighten up a dinner table like a musician who’ll play the piano after dinner, and I know you’re not really invited for yourself. You’re just an ornament. – Marilyn Monroe • On the meeting point of two worlds, the ornament of Turkish homeland, the treasure of Turkish history, the city cherished by the Turkish nation, İstanbul, has its place in the hearts of all citizens. – Mustafa Kemal Ataturk • One of the first principles of decorative art is that in all manufactures ornament must hold a place subordinate to that of utility; and when, by its exuberance, ornament interferes with utility, it is misplaced and vulgar. – George Mason • One of the things I’ve always loved about New York is there is so much precedent for ornament on industrial buildings. – Annabelle Selldorf • Opinions: men’s thoughts about great subjects. Taste: their thoughts about small ones: dress, behavior, amusements, ornaments. – George Eliot • Ornament is but the guiled shore to a most dangerous sea. – William Shakespeare • Ornaments were invented by modesty. – Joseph Joubert • Our notion of the perfect society embraces the family as its center and ornament, and this paradise is not secure until children appear to animate and complete the picture. – Amos Bronson Alcott • Patience ornaments the woman and proves the man. – Tertullian • Plato defines melody to consist of harmony, number and words: harmony naked of itself, words the ornament of harmony, number the common friend and uniter of them both. – John Dowland • Plutarch has a fine expression, with regard to some woman of learning, humility, and virtue;–that her ornaments were such as might be purchased without money, and would render any woman’s life both glorious and happy. – Laurence Sterne • Poets like painters, thus unskilled to trace The naked nature and the living grace, With gold and jewels cover ev’ry part, And hide with ornaments their want of art. True wit is Nature to advantage dressed, What oft was thought, but ne’er so well expressed. – Alexander Pope • Poverty was an ornament on a learned man like a red ribbon on a white horse. – Anzia Yezierska • Presently he rose and approached the case before which she stood. Its glass shelves were crowded with small broken objects —hardly recognisable domestic utensils, ornaments and personal trifles — made of glass, of clay, of discoloured bronze and other time-blurred substances. ‘It seems cruel,’ she said, ‘that after a while nothing matters… any more than these little things, that used to be necessary and important to forgotten people, and now have to be guessed at under a magnifying glass and labeled: “Use unknown”.’ – Edith Wharton • Pretty conceptions, fine metaphors, glittering expressions, and something of a neat cast of verse are properly the dress, gems, or loose ornaments of poetry. – Alexander Pope • Real art, like the wife of an affectionate husband, needs no ornaments. But counterfeit art, like a prostitute, must always be decked out. The cause of production of real art is the artist’s inner need to express a feeling that has accumulated…The cause of counterfeit art, as of prostitution, is gain. The consequence of true art is the introduction of a new feeling into the intercourse of life… The consequences of counterfeit art are the perversion of man, pleasure which never satisfies, and the weakening of man’s spiritual strength. – Leo Tolstoy • Rhime being no necessary Adjunct or true Ornament of Poem or good Verse, in longer Works especially, but the Invention of a barbarous Age, to set off wretched matter and lame Meeter…the troublesom and modern bondage of Rimeing. – John Milton • Rich people don’t have to have a life-and-death relationship with the truth and its questions; they can ignore the truth and still thrive materially. I am not surprised many of them understand literature only as an ornament. Life is an ornament to them, relationships are ornaments, their “work” is but a flimsy, pretty ornament meant to momentarily thrill and capture attention. Why didn’t I reread my F. Scott Fitzgerald sooner? I might have saved myself some time. – Sergio Troncoso • Right on to the New Period vineyard arbors were the centre and chief ornament of all gardens. – Marie-Luise Gothein • Sensible men show their sense by saying much in few words. If noble actions are the substance of life, good sayings are its ornament and guide. – Charles Simmons • Sentiment is a disgrace, instead of an ornament, unless it lead us to good actions. – Ann Radcliffe • Shame is an ornament to the young; a disgrace to the old. – Aristotle • She had a bracelet on one taper arm, which would fall down over her round wrist. Mr. Thornton watched the replacing of this troublesome ornament with far more attention than he listened to her father. It seemed as if it fascinated him to see her push it up impatiently, until it tightened her soft flesh; and then to mark the loosening—the fall. He could almost have exclaimed—’There it goes, again! – Elizabeth Gaskell • She was a phantom of delight When first she gleamed upon my sight, A lovely apparition, sent To be a moment’s ornament; Her eyes as stars of twilight fair, Like twilights too her dusky hair, But all things else about her drawn From May-time and the cheerful dawn. – William Wordsworth • Silence is an ornament for women. – Sophocles • Simplicity is not about making something without ornament, but rather about making something very complex, then slicing elements away, until you reveal the very essence. – Christoph Niemann • So may the outward shows be least themselves: The world is still deceived with ornament. In law, what plea so tainted and corrupt, But, being seasoned with a gracious voice, Obscures the show of evil? In religion, What damned error, but some sober brow Will bless it and approve it with a text, Hiding the grossness with fair ornament? There is no vice so simple but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts. – William Shakespeare • So may the outward shows be least themselves; The world is still deceived with ornament. – William Shakespeare • Some Christmas tree ornaments do more than glitter and glow, they represent a gift of love given a long time ago – Tom Baker • Some men covet knowledge out of a natural curiosity and inquisitive temper; some to entertain the mind with variety and delight; some for ornament and reputation; some for victory and contention; many for lucre and a livelihood; and but few for employing the Divine gift of reason to the use and benefit of mankind. – Francis Bacon • Studies are the food of youth, the delight of old age; the ornament of prosperity, the refuge and comfort of adversity; a delight at home, and no hindrance abroad; they are companions by night, and in travel, and in the country. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • Sustainability has become an ornament. – Rem Koolhaas • That thou art blamed shall not be thy defect, For slander’s mark was ever yet the fair; The ornament of beauty is suspect, A crow that flies in heaven’s sweetest air. – William Shakespeare • The ancients, who in these matters were not perhaps such blockheads as some may conceive, considered poetical quotation as one of the requisite ornaments of oratory. – Isaac D’Israeli • The art of decoration requires the most sophisticated and self-indulgent skills. Its aim has always been to sate the senses as gloriously as possible. … ornament is not only a source of sensuous pleasure; it supplies a necessary kind of magic to people and places that lack it. More than just a dread of empty spaces has led to the urge to decorate; it is the fear of empty selves. – Ada Louise Huxtable • The arts alone give direct access to experience. To eliminate them from education – or worse, to tolerate them as cultural ornaments – is antieducational obscurantism. It is foisted on us by the pedants and snobs of Hellenistic Greece who considered artistic performance fit only for slaves. – Peter Drucker • The Arts and Sciences, essential to the prosperity of the State and to the ornament of human life, have a primary claim to the encouragement of every lover of his country and mankind. – George Washington • The brightest ornaments in the crown of the blessed in heaven are the sufferings which they have borne patiently on earth. – Alphonsus Liguori • The Church knew what the psalmist knew: Music praises God. Music is well or better able to praise him than the building of the church and all its decoration; it is the Church’s greatest ornament. – Igor Stravinsky • The connoisseur of art must be able to appreciate what is simply beautiful, but the common run of people is satisfied with ornament. – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe • The Cross isn’t an ornament, mere symbol. It’s the mystery of God’s love, that He died for our sins. – Pope Francis • The Earth reminded us of a Christmas tree ornament hanging in the blackness of space. As we got farther and farther away it diminished in size. Finally it shrank to the size of a marble, the most beautiful marble you can imagine. – James Irwin • The economy is still substantially that of the fur trade, still based on the same general kinds of commercial items: technology, weapons, ornaments, novelties, and drugs. The one great difference is that by now the revolution has deprived the mass of consumers of any independent access to the staples of life: clothing, shelter, food, even water. Air access remains the only necessity that the average user can still get for himself, and the revolution has imposed a heavy tax on that by way of pollution. Commercial conquest is far more thorough and final than military defeat. – Wendell Berry • The farmer and the gardener are both busy, the gardener perhaps the more excitable of the two, for he is more of the amateur, concerned with the creation of beauty rather than with the providing of food. Gardening is a luxury occupation; an ornament, not a necessity, of life. – Vita Sackville-West • The feel of the place was deep, the prehistoric heartbeat of the rocks complicating the music, the people bright, all different kinds of dancers, smilers, swayers, swirlers, smokers, beer-drinking boppers, tripsters, spinners. I looked back at the crowd…and saw the show for a moment as a jewel…like a gem in a bracelet: an ornament on the body of the country, glittering in the coming darkness. – Jason Burke • The great end of prudence is to give cheerfulness to those hours which splendour cannot gild, and acclamation cannot exhilarate; those soft intervals of unbended amusement, in which a man shrinks to his natural dimensions, and throws aside the ornaments or disguises which he feels in privacy to be useless incumbrances, and to lose all effect when they become familiar. To be happy at home is the ultimate result of all ambition, the end to which every enterprise and labour tends, and of which every desire prompts the prosecution. – Samuel Johnson • The greatest ornament of an illustrious life is modesty and humility, which go a great way in the character even of the most exalted princes. – Napoleon Bonaparte • The grossest form of this injury of the body to ornament it, is in tattooing. Next, the piercing the ear all around its rim, piercing the nose and the lips to introduce rings or bars of jewelry. – Julia McNair Wright • The hair is the finest ornament women have. Of old, virgins used to wear it loose, except when they were in mourning. – Martin Luther • The hair is the richest ornament of women. – Martin Luther • The heroic soul does not sell its justice and its nobleness. It does not ask to dine nicely and to sleep warm. The essence of greatness is the perception that virtue is enough. Poverty is its ornament. It does not need plenty, and can very well abide its loss. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • The history of most women is hidden either by silence, or by flourishes and ornaments that amount to silence. – Virginia Woolf • The knowledge of the past times and of the places of the earth is both an ornament and nutriment to the human mind. – Leonardo da Vinci • The ‘leisured’ wife was a badge of achievement, the ornament to hard work and virtue for families on the way up. – Hilda Scott • The modern majesty consists in work. What a man can do is his greatest ornament, and he always consults his dignity by doing it. – Thomas Carlyle • The modern university does not exist to teach alone…It exists also to serve the democracy of which it is a product and an ornament…The university rests on the public will and on public appreciation. – Nicholas Murray Butler • The music, and the banquet, and the wine– The garlands, the rose odors, and the flowers, The sparkling eyes, and flashing ornaments– The white arms and the raven hair–the braids, And bracelets; swan-like bosoms, and the necklace, An India in itself, yet dazzling not. – Lord Byron • The only really Christian art is that which, like St. Francis, does not fear being wedded to poverty. This rises far above art-as-ornament. – Andre Gide • The ornament of a house is the friends who frequent it. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • The ornament of beauty, Shakespeare wrote, is suspect. And he was right. But beauty itself, unadorned and unaffected, is sacred, I think, worthy of our awe and our loyalty. – Dennis Lehane • The ornaments of our homes are the friends that visit it – Ralph Waldo Emerson • The peoples of the old world have their cities built for times gone by, when railroads and gunpowder were unknown. We can have cities for the new age that has come, adopted to its better conditions of use and ornament. We want, therefore, a city planning profession. – Horace Bushnell • The pictures placed for ornament and use, The twelve good rules, the royal game of goose. – Oliver Goldsmith • The quasi-peaceable gentleman of leisure, then, not only consumes of the staff of life beyond the minimum required for subsistence and physical efficiency, but his consumption also undergoes a specialisation as regards the quality of the goods consumed. He consumes freely and of the best, in food, drink, narcotics, shelter, services, ornaments, apparel, weapons and accoutrements, amusements, amulets, and idols or divinities. – Thorstein Veblen • The real ornament of woman is her character, her purity. – Mahatma Gandhi • The real Rose Hovick was seriously mentally disturbed; June Havoc called her a beautiful little ornament that was damaged. – Karen Abbott • The royal navy of England hath ever been its greatest defence and ornament; it is its ancient and natural strength, – the floating bulwark of our island. – William Blackstone • The very design of the gospel doth tend to self-abasing; and the work of grace is begun and carried on in humiliation. Humility is not a mere ornament of a Christian, but an essential part of the new creature: it is a contradiction to be a sanctified man, or a true Christian, and not humble. – Richard Baxter • The weak shows his strength and hides his weaknesses; the magnificent exhibits his weaknesses like ornaments. – Nassim Nicholas Taleb • The whole of heraldry and of chivalry is in courtesy. A man of fine manners shall pronounce your name with all the ornament that titles of nobility could ever add. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • The world would be astonished if it knew how great a proportion of its brightest ornaments, of those distinguished even in popular estimation for wisdom and virtue, are complete sceptics in religion. – John Stuart Mill • The world, which the Greeks called Beauty, has been made such by being gradually divested of every ornament which was not fitted to endure. – Henry David Thoreau • Then I feel, Harry, that I have given away my whole soul to someone who treats it as if it were a flower to put in his coat, a bit of decoration to charm his vanity, an ornament for a summer’s day. – Oscar Wilde • There are elements of intrinsic beauty in the simplification of a house built on the log cabin idea. First, there is the bare beauty of the logs themselves with their long lines and firm curves. Then there is the open charm felt of the structural features which are not hidden under plaster and ornament, but are clearly revealed, a charm felt in Japanese architecture….The quiet rhythmic monotone of the wall of logs fills one with the rustic peace of a secluded nook in the woods. – Gustav Stickley • There is a city in which you find everything you desire-handsome people, pleasures, ornaments of every kind-all that the natural person craves. However, you cannot find a single wise person there. – Rumi • There is material enough in a single flower for the ornament of a score of cathedrals. – John Ruskin • There is no doubt that Greek and Latin are great and handsome ornaments, but we buy them too dear. – Michel de Montaigne • There was very little about her face and figure that was in any way remarkable, but it was the sort of face which, when animated by conversation or laughter, is completely transformed. She had a lovely disposition, a quick mind and a fondness for the comical. She was always very ready to smile and, since a smile is the most becoming ornament that any lady can wear, she had been known upon occasion to outshine women who were acknowledged beauties in three countries. – Susanna Clarke • There were details like clothing, hair styles and the fragile objects that hardly ever survive for the archaeologist-musical instruments, bows and arrows, and body ornaments depicted as they were worn… No amounts of stone and bone could yield the kinds of information that the paintings gave so freely – Mary Leakey • Therefore, I bind these lies and slanderous accusations to my person as an ornament; it belongs to my Christian profession to be vilified, slandered, reproached and reviled, and since all this is nothing but that, as God and my conscience testify, I rejoice in being reproached for Christ’s sake. – John Bunyan • These studies are a spur to the young, a delight to the old: an ornament in prosperity, a consoling refuge in adversity; they are pleasure for us at home, and no burden abroad; they stay up with us at night, they accompany us when we travel, they are with us in our country visits. – Marcus Tullius Cicero • They are done merely for ornament. … the common people regard them as supernatural. – Xunzi • Think it a vile habit to alter works of good composers, to omit parts of them, or to insert new-fashioned ornaments. This is the greatest insult you can offer to Art. – Robert Schumann • To be apt in quotation is a splendid and dangerous gift. Splendid, because it ornaments a man’s speech with other men’s jewels; dangerous, for the same reason. – Robertson Davies • to become aware of the ineffable is to part company with words…the tangent to the curve of human experience lies beyond the limits of language. the world of things we perceive is but a veil. It’s flutter is music, its ornament science, but what it conceals is inscrutable. It’s silence remains unbroken; no words can carry it away. Sometimes we wish the world could cry and tell us about that which made it pregnant with fear–filling grandeur. Sometimes we wish our own heart would speak of that which made it heavy with wonder. – Abraham Joshua Heschel • To Forget Venice is a tour de force of ventriloquism. Elegant, contemporary, and wry, the voice at its center is also capable of disarming flights of imagination as it enters and inhabits other lives across time and gender. The glittering, fetid city emerges as a complex metaphor for the human heart’s simultaneous tenderness and capacity for cruelty, its ‘silver glow / a local specialty: filth / disguised as ornament.’ This Venice is unforgettable. – Chase Twichell • To spend too much time in studies is sloth; to use them too much for ornament is affection; to make judgment wholly by their rules is the humor of a scholar. • Tragedy was foresworn, in ritual denial of the ripe knowledge that we are drawing away from one another, that we share only one thing, share the fear of belonging to another, or to others, or to God; love or money, tender equated in advertising and the world, where only money is currency, and under dead trees and brittle ornaments prehensile hands exchange forgeries of what the heart dare not surrender. – William Gaddis • True ornament is not a matter of prettifying externals. It is organic with the structure it adorns, whether a person, a building, or a park. At its best it is an emphasis of structure, a realization in graceful terms of the nature of that which is ornamented – Frank Lloyd Wright • True, there are architects so called in this country, and I have heard of one at least possessed with the idea of making architectural ornaments have a core of truth, a necessity, and hence a beauty, as if it were a revelation to him. All very well perhaps from his point of view, but only a little better than the common dilettantism. – Henry David Thoreau • Truth is not only a man’s ornament but his instrument; it is the great man’s glory, and the poor man’s stock: a man’s truth is his livelihood, his recommendation, his letters of credit. – Benjamin Whichcote • We all originally came from the woods! it is hard to eradicate from any of us the old taste for the tattoo and the war-paint; and the moment that money gets into our pockets, it somehow or another breaks out in ornaments on our person, without always giving refinement to our manners. – Edwin Percy Whipple • We are made aware that magnitude of material things is relative, and all objects shrink and expand to serve the passion of the poet. Thus, in his sonnets, the lays of birds, the scents and dyes of flowers, he finds to be the shadow of his beloved; time, which keeps her from him, is his chest; the suspicion she has awakened, is her ornament – Ralph Waldo Emerson • We are often struck by the force and precision of style to which hard-working men, unpracticed in writing, easily attain when required to make the effort. As if plainness and vigor and sincerity, the ornaments of style, were better learned on the farm and in the workshop than in the schools. The sentences written by such rude hands are nervous and tough, like hardened thongs, the sinews of the deer, or the roots of the pine. – Henry David Thoreau • We hew and saw and plane facts to make them dovetail with our prejudices, so that they become mere ornaments with which to parade our objectivity. – Paul Eldridge • We know much of a writer by his style. An open and imperious disposition is shown in short sentences, direct and energetic. A secretive and proud mind is cold and obscure in style. An affectionate and imaginative nature pours out luxuriantly, and blossoms all over with ornament. – Henry Ward Beecher • We love to see any redness in the vegetation of the temperate zone. It is the color of colors. This plant speaks to our blood….What a perfect maturity it arrives at! It is the emblem of a successful life concluded by a death not premature, which is an ornament to Nature. What if we were to mature as perfectly, root and branch, glowing in the midst of our decay, like the poke! – Henry David Thoreau • We meet With few utterly dull and stupid souls: the sublime and transcendent are still fewer; the generality of mankind stand between these two extremes: the interval is filled with multitudes of ordinary geniuses, but all very useful, and the ornaments and supports of the commonwealth. – Jean de la Bruyere • We no longer dare to believe in beauty and we make of it a mere appearance in order the more easily to dispose of it. Our situation today shows that beauty demands for itself at least as much courage and decision as do truth and goodness, and she will not allow herself to be separated and banned from her two sisters without taking them along with herself in an act of mysterious vengeance. We can be sure that whoever sneers at her name as if she were the ornament of a bourgeois past — whether he admits it or not — can no longer pray and soon will no longer be able to love. – Hans Urs von Balthasar • We tend to treat our knowledge as personal property to be protected and defended. It is an ornament that allows us to rise in the pecking order. […] We take what we know a little too seriously. – Nassim Nicholas Taleb • What an ornament and safeguard is humor! Far better than wit for a poet and writer. It is a genius itself, and so defends from the insanities. – Walter Scott • What greater ornament to a son than a father’s glory, or to a father than a son’s honorable conduct? – Sophocles • What I resist is techniques. I find techniques very problematic. So when critics talk about my work in those terms, I find that they miss the condition. I am comfortable with the notion of pattern and ornament as a system of organization, [but] for me it acts as a textile. So it’s not about pattern, but the notion of architecture through the lens of textile, rather than architecture through the lens of brick and mortar. – David Adjaye • What on earth is modern exegesis up to? Oh, little lazy one! Some red wine and up! Off you go, brandishing your fork, stripped of Ophelia’s useless ornaments, fire in your large nostrils, out to rake the muck of metaphors. – Louis Aragon • When a rainbow appears vividly in the sky, you can see its beautiful colors, yet you could not wear as clothing or put it on as an ornament. It arises through the conjunction of various factors, but there is nothing about it that can be grasped. Likewise, thoughts that arise in the mind have no tangible existence or intrinsic solidity. There is no logical reason why thoughts, which have no substance, should have so much power over you, nor is there any reason why you should become their slave. – Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche • When a slave begins to take pride in his fetters and hugs them like precious ornaments, the triumph of the slave-owner is complete. – Mahatma Gandhi • Where virtue is, sensibility is the ornament and becoming attire of virtue. On certain occasions it may almost be said to become virtue. But sensibility and all the amiable qualities may likewise become, and too often have become, the panders of vice and the instruments of seduction. – Samuel Taylor Coleridge • Why would you want to keep the bluebird houses mounted in a place that you now know is unsafe for them? Bluebirds are not ornaments for pictures, they are living things that deserve your best effort if you are going to be a landlord to them. There is no magic spell that will protect those bluebirds–they have to depend on you or they are doomed. – Kathy Griffin • Wine is a part of society because it provides a basis not only for a morality but also for an environment; it is an ornament in the slightest ceremonials of French daily life, from the snack to the feast, from the conversation at the local cafT to the speech at a formal dinner. – Roland Barthes • Wise sayings are not only for ornament, but for action and business, having a point or edge, whereby knots in business are pierced and discovered. – Francis Bacon • Woman is the heart of humanity … its grace, ornament, and solace. – Samuel Smiles • Woman, to women silence is the best ornament. – Sophocles • You see the Earth as a bright blue and white Christmas tree ornament in the black sky. It’s so small and so fragile – you realize that on that small spot is everything that means everything to you; all of history and art and death and birth and love. – Rusty Schweickart • You see, for me [art]’s not one of life’s ornaments, rococo relaxation to be greeted affably after a day of hard work; I’m inverted on this : for me it’s my very breath, the one thing necessary, and all else is excretion and a latrine. – Arno Hintjens • You talk to me in parables. You may have known that I’m no wordy man, Fine speeches are the instruments of knaves Or fools that use them, when they want good sense; But honesty Needs no disguise nor ornament: be plain. – Thomas Otway • You’ll see everything from gold teeth to hood ornaments. It’s almost like Halloween during August. – David Carson
