"I wasn't good at being affable. You get beyond that and realise the attraction in any human being has more to do with what they give to someone rather than just being face candy"
- Alison Moyet
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.
