Quote:beauty is wasted on the young.
I have always held a personal theory, that everyone is attractive, at least at some stage of their life, ugly baby, good looking youth, plain in younger years, but age nicely, for example.
I think, if you are lucky, you will have your 'attractive' stage, when you are young, when it is far more important to you.
Personally, I think the inimitable Grace Kelly, had a real beauty, which included the indefinable element of "niceness", in a similiar vein to another great beauty, Audrey Hepburn.
I had a girlfriend who looked very like Audrey Hepburn when I was younger, who I broke up with in favour of my wife to be, I remember my friends saying I was insane to dump a "10", but the beauty of the person within is far more important than just external appearance, and I can safely say in hindsight, that it was the best decision of my life.
I am a very lucky guy.
