“Everyone Is Beautiful” – On Beauty & Self-Image

Posted: February 8th, 2010 | Author: elena | Filed under: body, change for the better, inspiring women, self-image | Tags: beauty, self-image, wisdom | 4 Comments »

By writer Katherine Center.

The slideshow was inspired by Katherine’s new novel “Everyone is Beautiful“; photos and design by Mary Swenson.

My favorite quotes:

Beauty comes from variety, from specificity, from the fact that no person in the world looks exactly like anyone else.

and:

It’s more important to be interesting, to be vivid, and to be adventurous than to sit pretty for pictures.

Bravo Katherine!
