Fernando Botero

All my life, my girlfriends are always skinny. Beauty in art has nothing to do with beauty in reality. Why do you like primitive art? Because there is beauty in the deformity. Sometimes paintings that people consider realistic are not at all. Raphael figures look realistic, but in real life, they were deformed.

Colombian Artist

William Blake

The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity... and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself.

English Poet

Baruch Spinoza

I would warn you that I do not attribute to nature either beauty or deformity, order or confusion. Only in relation to our imagination can things be called beautiful or ugly, well-ordered or confused.

Dutch Philosopher

Rachel Hollis

I have immense respect for anyone with a physical deformity and the courage and confidence it takes just to go out in the world.

American Author

John Ruskin

No person who is well bred, kind and modest is ever offensively plain; all real deformity means want for manners or of heart.

English Writer

Eleanor Roosevelt

Old age has deformities enough of its own. It should never add to them the deformity of vice.

Be mindful that using 'deformity' to describe a person may cause offense because of its strong negative connotations.

Emotional Impact

'Deformity' often refers specifically to abnormal shapes in organisms, especially humans.

Physical Reference

'Deformity' in a medical context usually describes atypical, generally visible body shapes caused by illness or genetics.

Medical Usage

In medical contexts, the term 'deformity' can be used descriptively without emotional weight.

Objective Tone

'Deformity' can apply to things other than bodies, like data or materials, usually indicating a deviation from normal.

Beyond Biology

'Deformity' can be used metaphorically to express something that is out of the ordinary or unexpected in non-physical contexts.

Metaphorical Use

In engineering, 'deformity' specifies a structural issue and is not about aesthetics but safety and function.

Technical Specificity

When referring to materials, 'deformity' often points to a compromise in the intended design or strength.
