Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder:
http://www.chinapage.org/story/beauty.html
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" - Origin:
This saying first appeared in the 3rd century BC in Greek. It didn't appear in its current form in print until the 19th century, but in the meantime there were various written forms that expressed much the same thought. In 1588, the English dramatist John Lyly, in his
Euphues and his England, wrote:
"...as neere is Fancie to Beautie, as the pricke to the Rose, as the stalke to the rynde, as the earth to the roote."
Shakespeare expressed a similar sentiment in Love's Labours Lost, 1588:
Good Lord Boyet, my beauty, though but mean,
Needs not the painted flourish of your praise:
Beauty is bought by judgement of the eye,
Not utter'd by base sale of chapmen's tongues
Benjamin Franklin, in Poor Richard's Almanack, 1741, wrote:
Beauty, like supreme dominion
Is but supported by opinion
beauty is in the eye of the beholderDavid Hume's Essays, Moral and Political, 1742, include:
"Beauty in things exists merely in the mind which contemplates them."
The person who is widely credited with coining the saying in its current form is Margaret Wolfe Hungerford (née Hamilton), who wrote many books, often under the pseudonym of 'The Duchess'. In Molly Bawn, 1878, there's the line "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder".

Beauty in eyes of beholder, study confirms:
WASHINGTON: When it comes to something pleasant, it seems that the phrase "easy on the eyes" may hold more truth than earlier believed, for a study has found that objects or people appear more attractive when the mind can process their looks faster.

Scientists ponder beauty and the eye of the beholder:
Evidence increasingly suggests the human brain is hard-wired for aesthetics.

I will give a simple explanation of my own. I will go
to a blind man and describe the beauty of a top cine
actress. Can any amount of description ake him realize
how beautiful she is? He needs eyes to see and
understand for him self.

a GOLDEN HEART, even though everybody knows you are gorgeous on the outside......
a TRUST, one so powerful enough it drags people towards you, and its not because you are only beautiful on the outside.....
a FAITH people have on you, which enables them to rely on you no matter what.....
a LIKENESS everyone attains from your attitude which tingles their senses.....
these are BEAUTIFUL... not only to me, or yourself, or the ones you love, but infact to the entire people who will instantly notice how beautiful your standard of scientific beauty is....
remember, it is a unique combination.... a beautiful looking person with the beautiful virtues listed above......
......rare indeed.....!

Beauty parameters are set by one's mental conditions and environment one is brought up . So scientific standardisation is difficult.

If you have a universal set consisting of all the beauty elements then for science it's unfortunately the empty set.

Eyes have to be big. It's all in the eyes.
Humans are soooo prejudiced towards other humans that don't have eyes that look "aware." They might not admit it or even be conscious of it.
