Actress Audrey Hepburn wrote the following, which was read at her funeral:
"To have attractive lips, say kind words.
To have beautiful eyes, look at what people have beautiful in them.
To stay thin, share the meal with those who are hungry.
To have beautiful hair, let a child run his hand through your hair every day.
To have a good expectation, to go knowing that you are never alone, but together with those who love you and have loved you.
People, even more than objects, must be repaired, pampered, revived, reclaimed and saved: never reject anyone.
Think about it: If you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of every arm. As you grow older, you will realize that you have two hands, one to help yourself, the other to help those who need it.
A woman's beauty is not in the clothes she wears, her face or the way she does her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because they are the open door to her heart, the source of her love.
The beauty of a woman is not in her makeup, but in the
true beauty of her soul. It is the tenderness it gives, the love, the passion
it expresses. A woman's beauty develops with the years."
