Beauty is only skin deep, but it’s a valuable asset if you’re poor or haven’t any sense.

Vernon Howard

VERNON HOWARD

Assuming Emotional Feelings
Examine every action and reaction. Do you act naturally or do you act because you feel compelled? If you feel compelled, stop. Compulsion is slavery. Example: Refuse to go along with the crowd.
