About this Quote

Reese Witherspoon's quote speaks to the superficiality of modern society. It is paradoxical that despite the hard work and also devotion that goes into achieving success, the emphasis is typically on what one is wearing as opposed to the accomplishment itself. This is particularly true in the show business, where honors ceremonies are often a lot more concerning style than the honors themselves. It is an unfortunate truth that people are evaluated a lot more on their appearance than their success. It is a pointer that we need to focus on what really matters and also not be sidetracked by surface points. We need to strive to be judged on our merits and not on our garments.
