"الجاذبية تفتن العين لكن الاستحقاق يكسب الروح"
— Alexander Pope
Simplified Meaning:
People may be attracted to someone because they are good-looking or charismatic, but what truly makes a person admirable and likable are their good qualities and their character. For instance, imagine meeting two people at a party: one is very charming and fashionable, and the other is quiet but incredibly kind and helpful. You might initially be drawn to the charming person because they stand out. However, over time, you realize that the helpful person is more reliable and caring. This deeper connection and respect you develop for the helpful person are because of their true worth and actions, not just their outward appearance or charm. In life, focusing on being a good person with strong values will earn you long-lasting respect and genuine relationships.
