Pretty Girls Quotes

“The pretty ones are usually unhappy. They expect everyone to be enamored of their beauty.

Ordinary-looking people are far superior, because they are forced to actually work hard to achieve their goals, instead of expecting people to fall all over themselves to help them.”

― E.T.A. Hoffmann, The Golden Pot and Other Tales
