George EliotDon't judge a book by its cover.
About This Quote
Judging a person by their exterior appearance is not always accurate. Some people look like the perfect person and on the inside, they may be very different from their appearance. For example, someone who you assume is very shy may in fact be the life of the party on the inside. You cannot assume anything about a person; you must see them for who they really are.
