Attractive

Famous quotes containing the word attractive:

    I confess, the motto of the Globe newspaper is so attractive to me, that I can seldom find much appetite to read what is below it in its columns, “The world is governed too much.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    One of the most attractive things about the flowers is their beautiful reserve.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ... when you do get a job everybody says, “Well, they wanted a black woman,” which necessarily puts you on a level where you have to prove yourself above being a woman and being black.... Now, I would say, in certain situations, it helped me simply because I was mildly attractive, not because I was black or a woman. That gets you more mileage than anything else.... God help you if you’re not an attractive woman.
    Theresa Brown (b. 1957)
