He was ugly, himself. Weird-ugly. But ugliness in a man doesn't matter, much. Ugliness in a woman is her life.

About This Quote

This quote is a perfect example of how man’s ideas of beauty can be so different from the idea we have of what we consider to be beautiful. When we think about Ugliness we usually think about a person or thing that we don’t like and wouldn’t want to be around. But, in this case, it is a woman who is ugly and she is beautiful. We should not judge women by their looks alone but by the inner beauty that they possess.
