Generally speaking, most sayings about beauty refer to beauty being skin deep, or beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The first, and others like it, refer to the fact that while you may be good-looking, or a beautiful person, what your face looks like won't matter if you act like a wretch. The second, beauty being in the eye of the beholder and such, implies that different people find different things to be beautiful, or worthy of adoration. A mathematician might find a particularly complex equation to be beautiful and worthy of adoration, whereas an artist would think colors and paintings and a scenic view are beautiful and worthy of adoration.
