->If there are two girls weeping on Charing Cross Station, and one is beautiful and the other is plain, the plain girl can sit there and grow old, but it takes about 15 minutes before Tom Baker comes along and says to the pretty one, ‘Where are you going?’ She says, ‘Folkstone, but I’ve got no money,’ and I say, ‘Listen,’ and give her a 20-pound note. Physical beauty transcends everything. It is the ultimate currency.

Britain’s ''Stylist'' Magazine asked the German King of the Vampires what he would do if he ran England. I don’t know why Stylist even asked him that. We all know that if Kunty Karl ran England, he’d make eating actual food illegal and he’d deport all fatties to a land far, far away. Karl didn’t say he’d do that, but he did say that he’d take away welfare for families [[TheBeautifulPeople and give that money to people who dressed well]]. Whoever said that zombies have no sense of humor has never read a Kunty Karl quote.

If you didn't know, that's because she absolutely wasn't doing that, but damn if that was going to stop [[Creator/OprahWinfrey Oprah]] from treating her like a medical professional anyway...despite the well-documented proof that the hormones she swears by have been linked to increased risk of breast cancer, cardiovascular disease, stroke, and heart attacks, when actual medical professionals were asked to be on the show, they were treated like [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg glorified audience members]], rather than featured panelists.\\\
In other words, damn them and their wealth of credibility in the field of medicine. Unless they can tell the world how injection needles will make Kegel exercises obsolete someday, Oprah isn't listening.

->A friend of mine has [[BettyAndVeronica two Daughters, whom I will call Lætitia and Daphne]]; The Former is one of the Greatest Beauties of the Age in which she lives, the Latter no way remarkable for any Charms in her Person. Upon this one Circumstance of their Outward Form, the Good and Ill of their Life seems to turn. Lætitia has not, from her very Childhood, heard any thing else but Commendations of her Features and Complexion, by which means she is no other than Nature made her, a very beautiful Outside. . . Poor Daphne was seldom submitted to in a Debate wherein she was concerned; her Discourse had nothing to recommend it but the good Sense of it, and she was always under a Necessity to have very well considered what she was to say before she uttered it; while Lætitia was listened to with Partiality, and Approbation sate in the Countenances of those she conversed with, before she communicated what she had to say.
