    1. Here is one from page 102: The beauty of a thought is based on an intuitive assessment of its quality. It enables a "golden link" to my Zettelkasten to the entry point "Concepts of beauty". Today I found a beautiful quote that underlines this concept: We may talk about the elegance of an equation, but we forget to find value in the beauty of a thought. — Marilynne Robinson

      First quote from p 102 is Sascha Fast's 2nd edition of zettelkasten book

      @Edmund I'm intrigued by your note about beauty with respect to information, about which I've got a small tranche of notes forming. You might appreciate this quote from Arthur Eddington in 1927: https://boffosocko.com/2013/09/26/entropy-beauty-melody/
