All forms of beauty, 
like all possible phenomena, 
contain an element of the eternal 
and an element of the transitory -
- of the absolute and of the particular. 
Absolute and eternal beauty does not exist, 
or rather it is only an abstraction 
creamed from the general surface 
of different beauties. 
The particular element in each 
manifestation comes from the emotions: 
and just as we have our own particular emotions, 
so we have our own beauty.

Charles Baudelaire
