What We Perceive

Everything has beauty,
but not everyone sees it.
- Confucius

There is no truth.
There is only perception.
- Gustave Flaubert

Not what we experience,
but how we perceive what we experience,
determines our fate.
- Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach

We don't live in the world of reality,
we live in the world of how we perceive reality.

The perception of beauty is a moral test.
- Henry David Thoreau

Look closely... See with new eyes...
Don't just pass by what is familiar without a thought.
Pay attention and look closely.
There is beauty - there is discovery -
there in a whole new world hiding
beneath the face of the familiar.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
