More Quotes

For several days now I have been trying to post but could not get through. There must be something wrong with my computer. Anyway, now it is ok. A few days ago, I found some quotes from someone who possesses classic beauty. I am referring to Audrey Hepburn. What were said are quite interesting.

Audrey Hepburn’s favorite beauty tips that she often quoted in public were actually written by the humorist Sam Levenson. Contrary to email passalongs, they were not read at her funeral. She lived them in her life.

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.

People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives and the passion that she shows.

The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.
When asked in January 1992 if she had any personal beauty secrets besides Levinson's philosophical tips, she said, "If I had them, I'd make a fortune. But I know what helps — health, lots of sleep, lots of fresh air, and a lot of help from Estee Lauder."

What do you think?

I realize that I kept this particular quote of Audrey Hepburn in one of the oldest files in my computer. Seems like I copied it from my elementary-high school computer pa. I couldn't get to delete it 'cause it's nice going back to it sometimes for inspiration. =)
