Hi everyone. Today I’m going to introduce Audrey Hepburn, a world-known actress and fashion icon in the 20th century.
Audrey is one of the most beautiful and elegant women in the world. Her famous movies are Roman Holiday and Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Here is Audrey ‘s picture in Roman Holiday when she was young, being both an actor and a model.
She not only has a beautiful appearance, but also compassion. In her old age, Audrey became an ambassador of The United Nations Children's Fund, helping children in 20 countries who were struggling to survive. This is her doing charity work in Africa.
My favorite quote of Audrey is “ As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others”. Even though Audrey Hepburn’s outer beauty is only a memory, her beauty inside will last forever.

    The common physical beauty is what Elaine Scarry called “a symmetry of everyone’s relation to one another” in her book called On Beauty and Being Just (1999). This means that beautiful subjects or objects are evenly proportioned and ideal in all their forms. In other words, if symmetry is perfection, then beauty is perfection too. At the same time, as absolute symmetry does not exist- beauty is a divine feature of “chosen”. Meanwhile, I have my own interpretation of physical beauty. This is the idea of beauty that is not just a physical appearance of a person or object. This is the universal “beauty” I was talking about in the introduction of the paper. In my opinion, physical beauty that relates to the beauty of objects or subjects…
