According to Santayana, beauty is linked to pleasure, and is fundamental to human purpose and experience. Beauty does not originate from pleasurable experiences, by itself, or from the objects that bring about pleasure. It is when the experience and emotion of pleasure intertwines with the qualities of the object that beauty arises. Beauty is a "manifestation of perfection", and as Santayana writes, "the sense of beauty has a more important place in life than aesthetic theory has ever taken in philosophy."
I know it's kinda stupid. But I had a 2004 dodge viper had it wrapped in matte black with the middle still shiney black. It was salvage title minor accident. That car was a thing of beauty it felt good every time I got in to drive it. Fuck it I have a pic I can post
