quote

"Is it not good to make society full of beautiful people?"
-Yang Yaun, quoted in The New York Times

I think this quote can work either way. Yes and no. I believe the that society has a very specific idea of beauty, and if you don't fit in - you're ugly. This is so very wrong. Everyone is beautiful in their own ways. Plus, we should all focus more on the inside. Our personality. Have we forgotten about that? I think we have. When beautiful people KNOW that they're beautiful, I feel like they think that's an excuse to be a crappy person. And it's not. Anyways, if everyone was society's idea of beauty - think of how boring it would be. A society full of beautiful faces and bodies could mean a society full of crappy personalities. But if you wanted to look at it from a different angle... everyone is beautiful. In all kinds of different ways! So, then again, maybe we already have a society of beauty...
