  2. Keats, Ode to a Grecian Urn, 1819 (he wrote all six of his odes that year),

    It is in the next to last line of the poem addressing the urn, and worth quoting in context:

        When old age shall this generation waste,

            Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe

        Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,

    "Beauty is truth, truth beauty," —that is all

            Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.


  3. John Keats. 1795–1821

    --->

    O Attic shape! fair attitude! with brede  

      Of marble men and maidens overwrought,  

    With forest branches and the trodden weed;  

      Thou, silent form! dost tease us out of thought  

    As doth eternity: Cold Pastoral!  

      When old age shall this generation waste,  

        Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe  

      Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,  

    'Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all  

        Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.'
