QUOTE:
Character contributes to beauty. It fortifies a woman as her youth fades. A mode of conduct, a standard of courage, discipline, fortitude and integrity can do a great deal to make a woman beautiful

This quote is attributed to the actress, Jacquiline Bisset , and she is so right,and I had good reason to recall this recently.
My daughter and I were watching and (unfortunately) listening to two young girls while we were at a beach last week. They were like a pair of stunning looking china dolls to look at. Beautiful big eyes, great complexions, and nice figures, lustrous thick hair, on long black wavy , the other short blonded spike and very modern and dishy. They could have been models or movie stars. What a shame. What a crying shame that they who had been endowed genetically with so much , could make no more of themselves than to become a pair of foul mouthed tarts!. They would have made the whole navy blush. Yes, judging from the care they took of themselves - their skin , their hair, their teeth etc, they wanted to be beautiful, and obviously thought that they were.
Surface beauty. Get it right girls, it counts for nothing unless there is a bright light shining from within. There was only dark and dirt from these two I tell you.

I know exactly what you mean, Katy. I've seen girls in the Malls that make you stop and stare, open-mouthed at such perfection of face and form. They have everything, these young beauties, except couth. They open their mouths and out pours the most inane drivel, foul language, and horribly accented, shrill noise. You can hear them from yards away either chatting together or shrieking on their cell phones. By way of contrast, there are women (and men), nothing to look at perhaps, whose beautifully modulated voices make you yearn to stop and listen.
Now, if these gorgeous girls could only take a lesson or two from the second group.....................! I found one such young person. She works in one of the shops and speaks like an actress. Not only that, but she has such interesting things to say and is a joy to talk to as well as being truly beautiful.
