1. For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
要有吸引人的雙唇，請說好意的言語。

2. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
要有美麗的雙眼，請尋索它人的優點。

3. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
要有纖細的身材，請與饑民分享你的食物。

4.For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
要有亮麗的頭髮，請讓小孩每日觸摸妳的頭髮。

5. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.
要有自信的態度，請學習妳不曾學過的知識。

6. People, even more than things, have to be restored, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
人之所以為人，是必須充滿精力、自我悔改、自我反省、自我成長； 並非向人抱怨。

7. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find them at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others .
請記得，如果你需要幫助，你永遠有你的手可以自己動手。
當你成長後，你會發覺你有二隻手，一隻幫助自己，一隻幫助它人。

8. The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart , the place where love resides.
女人的美麗不存在於她的服飾、她的珠寶、她的髮型；女人的美麗必須從她的眼中找到，因為這才是她的心靈之窗與愛心之房。

9. The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows.
女人的美麗不是表面的，應該是她的精神層面－是她的關懷、她的愛心以及她的熱情。

10. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.
女人的美麗可以隨著年齡增長。
