Clearly God loves ugly people. He makes so many of them. He shows his contempt for life by the kind of person he selects to receive it. Crawling from primeval waters you waddled, slaves, cripples, imbeciles, the simple and the mighty, fighting for the right to breathe oxygen. It was a mistake but you did it. Little did it matter to you that the earth was a vale of tears, of horrid sufferings, of torturous sickness and death. You wanted life little worm. You got it.
And what did you do with it when you got it? Celebrate? Have fun? No. You moaned. Equal rights! Equal pay! Equal Equal! Equal is a dead word. No man who says “I am as good as you” believes it. The shark never says it to the sardine, nor the intelligent to the stupid, nor the rich to the poor, nor the beautiful to the plain. The claim to equality is made only by those who feel themselves to be in some way inferior.
And inferior they are. With beautiful classical things like me the Lord finished the job. Ordinary ugly people know they’re deficient and they go on looking for the pieces, moaning and complaining. Don’t you realise my darlings that if you have any complaints, they would be theistic : - they should be about your maker , who lets face it, hasn’t done that great a job.
Physical beauty is the sign of an interior beauty, a spiritual and moral beauty. The handsome are not merely blessed with their looks, they are somehow better than the plain and ugly : they are wittier, more intelligent, even tempered and socially competent. Ms Sappho put it more bluntly : “What is beautiful is good”
What I hate most about ugliness is that it shows such bad judgement. Much as I loathe ugly people our sympathies should not, however, be for them after all. I mean their faces they are behind - they can’t see their revolting selves. We, the public, on the other hand, are in front of them and can see all too clearly. And its simply not good enough. No its not. How dare they look like that? Don’t they realise that their right to look revolting ends where it meets my eye?
My comment is simple. Can a person be too beautiful and in turn intimidating to those beholding? How do we judge beauty and ugliness when beauty is individual?
I enjoy beautiful things, to wear to buy etc. I know that I am attractive but I would not say beautiful. And yet I paint and explore ugliness.

I agree with your contempt for ugliness.
Beauty is wholeness, if you are wholly beautiful.
Upon reading this I am more complimented that you referred to my beauty when I had the grace of meeting you while visiting the bacon paintings. Hope you managed to avoid ugliness for the rest of the day.

I’ve had enough of this shit. The internet is for those who lack the flair for conversation. A blog is what you write for after being rejected by all the reputable publishers. It is Loser Central. The last refuge of the refuse. Anyone who has a blog or leaves comments on a blog is a wanker. It is far too undignified for a man of my stature. That it attracts such bitterness is not surprising. For one person spoilt by success, a thousand are spoilt by failure. Success makes people, for the most part, humble, tolerant, and kind. Failure makes people bitter and cruel. I can make no more of you than a hedgehog. You are too dull to be ridiculous.
I am the only thing of value on the internet and I am removing it immediately. Goodbye.

My name is Vanessa Chapman and I am an honours student with Griffith University on the Gold Coast, Australia. I am completing my thesis on the under explored area of Ghost-writing especially with biographies and autobiographies.
I am hoping you may be willing in completing a short questionnaire for my project in order to garner thoughts and views on this secret yet known about occupation. I can either send this via normal mail or via email.
I sincerely hope you will be willing to participate in this project as it will give a greater understanding of why little is known about ghost-writing and the motivations for both the writer and the client to enter such an agreement.
I look forward to hearing from you soon. I can be contacted on [email protected]
Sincerest Regards
Vanessa Chapman

Mirror Mirror on the wall who's the fairest.......... It's me I tell ya! It's those damn storys and folklore tales that did it to me! Snow White V Ugly Duckling. Snow White won as she had an army of little people ya know.
Mirror, Mirror, a novel by Gregory Maguire is based on the tale of Snow White. Bianca De Nevada is the child of Don Vincente De Nevada, who finds a mirror in a lake, a relic placed there by the mysterious stone dwarves. Don Vincente is sent on a holy quest for a branch from the Tree of Knowledge by Lucrezia Borgia and her brother Cesare, so that leaves Bianca under the watchful eye of the jealous Lucrezia.
Snow White or the House in the Wood, a 1900 novel by Laura E. Richards, is about a little girl who pretends to be Snow White. She is lost in the woods and finds a house that she hopes has seven dwarves. But there is only one dwarf who takes her in and cares for her a while. The dwarf is a person of importance who had lost faith in humanity but finds it again in the little girl.
The Blood Confession a novel by Alisa M. Libby about a young countess who bathes in the blood of virgins in her desperation to be eternally young and beautiful. The novel is told in the point of view of the countess and draws on the evil stepmother character in Snow White. When a young girl named Snow appears, the countess endeavors to corrupt her perfect innocence. The Countess is also based on the legend of Countess Bathory.

When I first met you I thought you were a weird looking man, certainly not good looking. Now I have read this I realise you are actually quite funny and that has made you attractive to me.
Fancy a fuck?

Giving a smile away takes so little effort and time, let’s make sure that we’ve not the one that others have to pretend is wearing an invisible smile.

Unearth the a single that helps make your coronary heart smile. Desire that which you would like to aspiration; go wherever you would like to go; be that which you would like to be, given that you may have only a person lifestyle and a person prospect to carry out each of the elements you must do.

This article points out how cosmetic history has evolved over centuries. Up until very recent times it has been devoted to enhancing the beauty of women.

There is someone that is coming or passing away in your life around the clock, so you may lose sight of those seen, and forget those remembered. There is gain and loss in your life, so you may catch sight of those unseen, and remember those forgotten. Nevertheless, doesn‘t the unseen exist for sure? Will the remembered remain for ever?
