Values Quotes – Margaret Wolfe Hungerford on Beauty

Today’s quote is from Margaret Wolfe Hungerford. She was an Irish novelist whose light romantic fiction was popular throughout the English-speaking world in the late 19th century.

Hungerford wrote about the differentiating value of Beauty, which means the qualities that give pleasure to the senses; and, that which is attractive.

Beyond physical beauty, there is also an inward beauty. Doesn’t it just move you when you see someone who struggles with what we perceive as a disadvantage, and yet they’re persevering on, and achieving success?

 

Today’s value was selected from the “Beauty Style” category, based on the e-book Developing Your Differentiating Values.
