Why is it that beautiful women never seem to have curiosity? Is it because they know they're classical? With classical things the Lord finished the job. Ordinary ugly people know they're deficient and they go on looking for the pieces.

These people look for perfection but never seem to find it. Ordinary people have a very superficial view of beauty and are obsessed with collecting the pieces that would make them beautiful.
