Beauty endures only for as long as it can be seen;
Goodness, beautiful today, will remain so tomorrow.


Josephine Balmer Sappho: Poems and Fragments (1992) fragment 119


Beauty endures only for as long as it can be seen; Goodness, beautiful today, will remain so tomorrow.

Beauty endures only for as long as it can be seen; Goodness, beautiful today, will remain so tomorrow.

Beauty endures only for as long as it can be seen; Goodness, beautiful today, will remain so tomorrow.

Beauty endures only for as long as it can be seen; Goodness, beautiful today, will remain so tomorrow.
