About this Quote

This quote by Alison Moyet speaks to the concept that real tourist attraction is not based on physical look, however rather on the high qualities as well as values that a person brings to a connection. She suggests that being "obliging" or "face candy" is insufficient to develop a meaningful connection. Rather, it is the things that a person provides to another that genuinely matters. This might be anything from psychological support, to compassion, to a listening ear. Inevitably, it is the abstract top qualities that make a person attractive, not their physical appearance. This quote encourages us to look beyond the surface area and also value the unique qualities that each person brings to the table.
