Chapter 6 of Les Miserables "Beauty is as useful as application". Are there any other translated versions?
"Beautiful things are as useful as useful things."

This garden, which has been destroyed by the ugly building we mentioned, consists of four cross-shaped alleys extending from a pool. The other path goes around the garden, bypassing the white wall around the garden. These alleys left behind them four square plots surrounded by boxes. Madame Magloire grows vegetables on three of the farms; In the fourth, the bishop planted some flowers; There are several fruit trees everywhere. Madame Magloire once said with mild malice, "My Lord, you have explained everything clearly, but there is a useless conspiracy. It would be better to plant salads there than to plant bouquets. " "Madame Magloire," retorted the Bishop, "you are mistaken. Beautiful is as useful as useful. " After a pause, he added, "Maybe even more so."
