What is the beauty of a thing if others do not take pleasure in it.

About This Quote

This one is a little strange. It seems like the writer of this quote is suggesting that beauty is not important if other people do not see it as important. This makes me think that it is an elaborate metaphor about the importance of social interaction and how we need to understand others and what they like and enjoy. The idea, probably, is that we should focus on things that other people will like or find enjoyable.
