About this Quote

This quote by Hosea Ballou speaks to the idea that appeal is not something that is always hard to achieve, however rather something that is simple to possess. It is the look of appeal that is hard to preserve. This could be analyzed in a variety of methods. For example, it might be interpreted as a pointer that appeal is not something that is accomplished through physical appearance, but rather something that is discovered within. It might likewise be translated as a reminder that beauty is not something that is achieved through product belongings or status, however rather something that is discovered within. Eventually, this quote works as a pointer that beauty is something that is discovered within and is not something that is attained through external means. It is simple to possess beauty, but it is challenging to maintain the look of appeal.
