Quote #142674
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....

Interpretation
The passage reframes “beauty” as an ethical practice rather than a purely physical attribute. Each conventional marker of attractiveness—lips, eyes, figure, hair, poise—is paired with a corresponding act of generosity or moral attention: kind speech, charitable perception of others, feeding the hungry, tenderness toward children, and humility grounded in companionship or spiritual support. The cumulative effect is to suggest that outward grace is inseparable from inward character, and that the most enduring form of attractiveness is produced by compassion and self-forgetfulness. The list structure reads like a set of maxims, turning everyday grooming advice into a miniature moral philosophy.
