My value as a woman is not measured by the size of my waist or the number of men who like me. My worth as a human being is measured on a higher scale: a scale of righteousness and piety. And my purpose in life-despite what fashion magazines say-is something more sublime than just looking good for men. Yasmin Mogahed
About This Quote

A beautiful woman is not measured by the size of her waist, the number of men who like her, or her looks. Beauty is something that has no boundaries and has no limitations. A woman can be beautiful even if she does not have a perfect figure. She can be beautiful even if she does not look good to everyone; beauty is something that is inherent to a person and can never be lost.
