    Physical beauty fades, intelligence lasts forever :-)

    It doesn`t matter really. If I`m beautiful is is rather easy to become brilliant through reading, school, observation, ect. If I`m brilliant I can easily earn the money for all the cosmetic surgery I would require to become beautiful. I`m not beautiful but cute and I`m not brilliant but somewhat smart and yet I am satisfied .

    Brilliant, beauty can only last as long as u do but ur intelligence and what u discover with that intelligence is never ending.

    Beautiful. I am fairly intelligent but not very beautiful. I don't really have many friends. At least if you have beauty you can still weasel your way into a good job. I may end up with a great job from being smart but I can never weasel my way into being hot.

    My incredible modesty prevents me from pointing out that I am, quite obviously, already both! It is a terrible burden to bear, but I will manage, thank you.
