Contexts with "contemplate"

Just as it is better to illuminate than merely to shine, so to pass on what one has contemplated is better than merely to contemplate. En effet, il est plus beau d’éclairer que de briller seulement ; de même est-il plus beau de transmettre aux autres ce qu’on a contemplé que de contempler seulement.
Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty. La beauté n'est pas une qualité dans les choses elles-mêmes: elle existe seulement dans l'esprit qui les contemple; et chaque esprit perçoit une beauté différente.
