How to not redefine url for static files in flask everytime

My app has a lot of routes that use the same set of static files.

I have to define them for every route like this:

css_reset = url_for("static", filename="reset.css")
css_main = url_for("static", filename="main.css")
css_fonts = url_for("static", filename="fonts.css")

js_jquery = url_for("static", filename="jquery-1.7.2.min.js")
js_main = url_for("static", filename="main.js")

And then, when I render a template it looks like this:

return render_template("person.html",
                       css_main=css_main,
                       css_reset=css_reset,
                       css_fonts=css_fonts,
                       js_jquery=js_jquery,
                       js_main=js_main)

I'm new to flask and python and I think that what I'm doing is a bit ridiculous. Can I define them in one place and then just use in my templates, without copying and pasting in every route definition?
