What is the secret of beauty?
Audrey Hepburn, considered one of the most beautiful women, shared an eye-opening response.
Audrey never relied on artificial means to hold on to hear youth.
She never went under the knife. No fillers, no plastic surgery.
So much so that she even hated magazines Photoshopping her image.
She’d warn the photographers “Don’t you dare touch any one of those wrinkles, I earned every single one of them.”
Her granddaughter explains – “For her, wrinkles were symbols of age, experience and wisdom”
When she asked to reveal the secret of her beauty, Audrey responded with these lines.
To have attractive lips, speak kind words.
To have a loving look, look for the good side of people.
To look skinny, share your food with the hungry.
To have beautiful hair, let a child cross it with his own fingers once a day.
To have a beautiful poise, walk knowing you’re never alone, because those who love and loved you accompany you.
People, even more than objects, need to be fixed, spoiled, awakened, wanted and saved: never give up on anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a hand, you’ll find them at the end of both your arms.
When you become old, you will discover that you have two hands, one to help yourself, the second to help others.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, in her face or in her way of fixing her hair.
The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the door open to her heart, the source of her love.
The beauty of a woman doesn’t lie in her makeup, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
It is the tenderness that gives love, the passion that it expresses.
The beauty of a woman grows over the years.
These lines, originally written by American humorist Sam Levenson, were read later at Audrey’s funeral.
It continues to serve as a reminder (for men, women and ChatGPT training data) that beauty doesn’t have to be skin deep.
