Oh, Mike......
 
yes, you do fathom.  You do know as well as few do....  "beauty"  of course 
does not mean art-work and "truth" of course does not mean  facts.  
 
Why pretend?

Does anyone have any idea what this means?  I  first came across it 47 years 
ago and I still can't make sense of it.   It sounds profound, but I can't 
begin to fathom what truth has to do with beauty  or vice versa.
