Beauty is found between moderation and excess

Something I realized a few days ago. I don't think that I can add anything to that.

P. S. about a week later (December 2020): I can add something to that now: Beauty is found between moderation and excess but moderation is best in practical things. Many works of the ancient Greeks wonderfully combined an expression of moderation in practical, scientific things with the extra emotional depth required to reach beauty, which, as always, lies between moderation and excess. Things like the beautiful Parthenon, which is built around mathematical moderation, classical 5th and 4th Century Greek sculpture, which like the Parthenon combine mathematical moderation and balance with the extra emotional depth that creates beauty (especially as you look into the eyes of the statue and can see what they are thinking- a most extrordinary quality of Greek statues!) and the plays of Sophocles, which celebrate heroic moderation in calm, beautiful language while persuing a monumental, epic heroic ideal which definitely lies between moderation and excess!

I hope my works can measure up- the visions that I experienced that inspired them definitely do!

Sincerely,

David S. Annderson
