Beauty always exists at some border or terminus of the world.


"Beauty always exists at some border or terminus of the world . . . Its natural place is at the edge of the great lack, the great precipice of the world . . . The beautiful can exist at the edge precisely because it has nothing to lose and everything to give away."

Frederick Turner,
"Beauty: The Value of Values"
