Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder

किमप्यस्ति स्वभावेन
सुन्दरं वाप्यसुन्दरम् ।
यदेव रोचते यस्मै
भवेत्तत्तस्य सुन्दरम् ॥
- हितोपदेशः

Is there anything that is beautiful or ugly by its nature? Whatever pleases a person gets recognized by him as being beautiful.

Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.
