The criterion
of true beauty is that it increases on examination; if
false, that it lessens. There is therefore, something in

the dress, the greater luster does beauty appear.

on the inside means you don't hit your brother and you eat

There's beauty
all around our paths, if but our watchful eyes can trace it
midst familiar things, and through their lowly guise.
