i dunno who quoted it, but..\nit is largly stereotyped that beautiful females are stupid...\nso, when people say "beauty AND the brains" its like saying "wow, shes beautiful AND she's smart, how rare..."\nthis is alos thought of because of the way nerds are stereotyped. \nyou dont typiacally think of beauty when you hear the word nerd.

Pretty much the quote states that even the more powerful people in the world make mistakes and aren't always correct in their ways of solving problems.  And that a truly good person would be able to see that they're way isn't the right way and will allow other solutions to the problem, as long as the problem gets resolved peacefully.  And that the worst thing a person can do is be too proud to take someone else's advice.  In Antigone, her father I believe (it's been a while since I read this) is so set in his ways and believing he's right, that he won't see things from Antigone's point of view.  Due to his pride, it results in his daughter's death (I'm pretty sure she dies in this), which is not an affective solution to the problem.  I'm sorry I can't remember quotes and things of that sort.  But I hope I put you on the right track!  Good luck!

Are you that guy? ^_^ LOL... I'm just kidding...\n\nYour question can have different meanings. Do you mean:\n1. If a guy has a handsome look, does it indicate that he probably has no brain at all?\n2. Why do I meet with a handsome guy with no brain at all?\n3. Why does a handsome guy seem to me having no brain at all?\n4. Should I make friends (or date) with a handsome guy who has no brain at all?\n5. What should I do with a handsome guy with no brain at all?\n6. (Other)?\n\nDifferent meanings of the question can lead to different answers. They are respectively as follows:\n1. No, a handsome guy does not mean that he has no brain at all.\n2. YOu have good luck in meeting a handsome guy but bad luck in finding out he has "no brain at all". -_^ Well... sometimes it may sound worse than it actually is... You may need to take more time if you still have patience to keep up with him! ^_^\n3. It may be due to some misunderstanding or prejustice. It takes time to learn a person well. He may have some/many shortcomings...something really bothering or offending you but he should have other merits.\n4. The combinations of answers of 2 & 3. It depends on your personality and willingness.\n5. If you'd like to still make friends with him and take more time to learn about him, keep on. If you think you cannot communicate (or put up) with him or cannot learn anything from him, quit contacting him.\n6. Please give more details ^_^

Compliment them. There is this book about a teenager who had everything go wrong for him and decided to commit suicide. He has some books checked out from the library, so thinking that he's about to do the last good deed of his life, he goes to return them. The secterary-person, says, "You're a very handsome young man," and his life turns around on just that comment.\n\nI've never read it, but my teacher told us about it.\n\nIt might be true.

This quotation, sometimes with minor changes, appears many times on the Internet, always without attribution to any particular poem -- except once or twice where the poem that is said to contain the quote turns out not to have it.\n\nI checked a couple of scholarly databases and found nothing there.\n\nWhile it's bizarre to have a misquote itself widely quoted, that is not unknown. It's possible Yeats never wrote or said it.\n\nYou might want to ask on this forum of experts: http://killdevilhill.com/yeatschat/wwwboard.html

Although it's really tough to find a particular quote if you are not aware of the author, but still i am attaching a link of the website, try finding your quote in the same.\n\nAll the best.

That is kind of a tricky little quote. Sometimes placing it in context can help. This is a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay "Self Reliance," which discourages basing one's opinions and actions on common opinion in favor of self-trust (see the full essay at http://www.emersoncentral.com/selfreliance.htm). \nI think the point of this quote is that it's very desireable to have one's own original thoughts and opinions, and to live by them.  It's easier to live by one's own convictions and not be persuaded by others when in isolation (that's the "independence of solitude"). However, not so special to isolate oneself from others in order to attain this ideal. Because it's difficult to live by one's own thoughts and opinions while being a part of society, it's something only a "finished man" can truly do. Also, in the essay, Emerson refers to being childlike - unselfish, non-judgmental, open-minded, uncynical, unhesitant - as something to admire. So I think that's where the seemingly misplaced "perfect sweetness" comes in. When a man can remain pure of heart while living in the harsh world and also keeping and living by his own ideals. \nWhat do you think?

You are upsetting me.  I have searched all of Orwell's works with that quote and no source is turning up, just that it is a quote attributed to Orwell.  I have read 1984 several times, and this quote is ringing all kinds of bells.  It has to be from that book.  I will keep looking for it.  It is personal now.\n\nGot it...\n"The Collected Essays, Journalism and Letters of George Orwell" Volume 4, page 51

From Shakespeare's "Henry VI":\n\n---------------\nDICK.\nThe first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers. \n\nJACK CADE.\nNay, that I mean to do. Is not this a lamentable thing, that of the skin of an innocent lamb should be made parchment? that parchment, being scribbled o'er, should undo a man? Some say the bee stings: but I say, 'tis the bee's wax; for I did but seal once to a thing, and I was never mine own man since.- How now! who's there?\n---------------\n\nDespite what the ignorant believe, Shakespeare is not anti-lawyer, he's anti-anarchy.  Dick and Jack are revolutionaries intent on overthrowing the monarchy.

The closest I could find is:\n\n#49847. Sextus, Propertius. The Columbia World of Quotations. 1996\n\n"Love never offers to anyone wings so easy that he does not hold him back with his other hand. "\n\nHope this helps!

Basically the quote tells you that you can only grow or advance as high or as far as your dreams will take you. So to make great strides in life you must dream big. It also tells you that it is not nearly enough to dream, but you must put some sweat equity into achieving that dream. \n\nIt figures into my life through every scientific or engineering advance that man makes. The fact that I am communicating with you right now over the internet is attributable to that quote. Someone had to dream of such a great endeaver, and then had to work hard enough to carry that out.

First, this quote makes fun of the fact that people see society as an entity, when in reality it is composed of, well, people. Keeping this in mind...\nTo make it easier I'll break-down this quote as follows;\n-quote\n-litteral meaning\n-metaphorical meaning\n\n"society everywhere is in concpiracy against the manhood of everyone of its members."\n-everyone everywhere is in conspiracy against their own qualities and attributes (conventionally thought to be appropriate to a man) especially physical strength, courage, and determination\n-it seams people are purposely forcing themselves to forget what strength, courage, and determination are all about\n\n"society is a joint-stock company" \n-this portion is meant litterally\n- society is made up of people that all influence it individually, just as a joint stock company is made up of shareholders that also influence it individually\n\n\n"in which the members agree"\n-in which the stock holders agree\n-people  agree,\n\n"for the better securing of his bread to each share holder"\n-for the better securing of the food of each share holder\n-that in order to better secure their income\n\n"to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater"\n-to compromise the freedom and character of themselves\n-they should compromise themselves as people.\n\nTo sum up, The true meaning of the quote is:\npeople are inadvertantly destroying themselves. It's as if people feel that to succeed finantialy they must compromise the very characteristics that make us superior beings.\n\nhope this helps  good luck

It is a quote attributed to Coco Chanel.  I think she was was basically saying older women aren't desirable, unless they have the decency to make themselves look younger than they are.  Kinda pathetic in my never to be humble opinion.

This is a slight modification of a quote by Clemenceau (not Churchill, to whom it has been wrongly attributed).  It is a catchy phrase, of course, and that explains its popularity, but as for its substance, it isn't ungenerous to say that the quote is both heartless and brainless itself.  It is heartless in that it is offensive to both young people who oppose socialism and to old ones who redeem it.  It is brainless in that, in its simplicity, it contends that a significant contingent of renowned scientists (who are indeed disproportionately liberal and somewhat socialst) are brainless.  (To claim that Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein were brainless is indeed brainless in itself.)
