Beauty Tips
by Audrey Hepburn

For attractive lips,
speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes,
seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure,
share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair,
let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day.
For poise,
walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.
Poeple, even mor than things,
have to be restored, renewed, revived,
reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw
out anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand,
you will find one at the end of
each of your arms.
As you grow older, you will discover that
you have two hands; one for helping yourself,
and the other for helping others.

Dieses Gedicht schrieb Audrey Hepburn, als man sie nach ihren Schönheitstips fragte. Jahre später wurde es auf ihrer Beerdigung vorgelesen.
