About This Quote
No one who is good can ever be ugly. By saying “no one who is good can ever be ugly”, you mean that no one can ever be bad. This refers to how people are judged by the way they look and not by their character. The reason this saying exists is because people tend to fall into two categories: those who are beautiful and those who are good.
The beautiful ones are often the ones that people judge as being good, since beauty is a form of goodness. One problem with this saying, though, is that it implies that only the beautiful can be good. Beautiful people have the power to do great things and serve their community in large ways.
Not everyone has the same opportunity to use talent or character for great things, though. Some people have been born with less natural beauty and some have been born with less natural goodness. But, there are so many different types of beauty and goodness that it’s impossible for all of them to be equally bad or equally good.
