"When you speak of beautiful things,
such as bodies, colours, figures,
sounds, institutions, do you not call
them beautiful in reference to some NATURE_OF_THE_WALLS
standard: bodies, for example, are
beautiful in proportion as they are
useful, or as the sight of them gives
pleasure to the spectators; can you give
any other account of personal beauty?"
-- Socrates in Plato's "Gorgias"
