And here, after all that, is what I have come to believe about beauty: Laughter is beautiful. Kindness is beautiful. Cellulite is beautiful. Softness and plumpness and roundness are beautiful. It's more important to be interesting, to be vivid, and to be adventurous than to sit pretty for pictures. The soft tummy of a woman is a miracle of nature. Beauty comes from tenderness.

Beauty comes from the tragedy that each person's life is destined to be lost to time. —Katherine Center in Everyone is Beautiful More about this quote Tags: kindness beauty laughter nature variety specificity cellulite Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
