“A fragile, unearthly prettiness has come out in Laura: she is like a piece of translucent glass touched by light, given a momentary radiance, not actual, not lasting.” Tennessee Williams, The Glass Menagerie
“I have been meditating on the very great pleasure which a pair of fine eyes in the face of a pretty woman can bestow.” Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
“Her face was fair and pretty, with eyes like two bits of night sky, each with a star dissolved in the blue.” George MacDonald, The Princess and the Goblin
“A sense of responsibility would spoil her. She's too pretty.” F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Beautiful and Damned
“Where's the use of looking nice, when no one sees me but those cross midgets, and no one cares whether I'm pretty or not?” Louisa May Alcott, Little Women
“That's the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even if they're not much to look at, or even if they're sort of stupid, you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are. Girls. Jesus Christ. They...” J. D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
“That's the light that makes everything better, everything prettier, and today, everything just seemed to be in that light.” John Green, Looking for Alaska
