Eye of the Beholder

To reserve the word ‘Beauty’ to be used only to describe those of a certain prodigy or for items of extravagant value would be a poetic injustice.

Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder. The first person to use “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” was an author called Margaret Wolfe Hungerford. She included the phrase in her book ‘Molly Bawn’ (1878). It is another way of saying that beauty is subjective. “It’s true that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Those that find the beauty in an old, broken-down truck, in the tiny flower, in spite of all odds against it, preserved and rose up from the parched earth and in the stillness on a cold December night, to those a gift was given.
