Audrey Hepburn Lover

My good friend named Lauren,(who lives in Singapore, we met when I was in 4th grade when I went to visit my grandparents when they were serving a mission there and we traded e-mail address and have stayed in touch all these years :) Anyway she e-mailed me this quote from Audrey Hepburn.

"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles." -Audrey Hepburn
Isn't that adorable!? My personal favorite quote from Audrey Hepburn is one that she didn't even say originally! When people would ask her what her beauty tips were she would recite this poem, 
Time Tested Beauty Tips
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 or her
fingers through it once a day.


For poise,
Walk with the knowledge
you'll never walk alone.


People, even more than things,
have to be restored, renewed,
revived, reclaimed, and redeemed;

Never throw out anybody.

Remember,
If you ever need a helping hand,

you'll find one at the end of your arm.

As you grow older,
you will discover
that you have two hands,


one for helping yourself,
the other for helping others.

The beauty of a woman
is not in the clothes she wears,


The figure that she carries,
or the way she combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman
must be seen from in her eyes,


because that is the doorway to her heart,
the place where love resides.


The beauty of a woman
is not in a facial mole,


The beauty of a woman
is reflected in her soul.


It is the caring that she lovingly gives,
the passion that she shows,

And the beauty of a woman
with passing years-only grows
