Summary

This quote is a humorous comment that highlights the illusory nature of beauty standards. The speaker suggests that the girl's appearance is unconventional, to the point where she is perceived as unattractive. However, when placed within a context where different standards are applied, such as a dog show (where physical characteristics differ), she is unexpectedly appreciated and even considered the best. This quote challenges the notion of beauty being universal or absolute and invites us to question societal judgments and the arbitrary nature of beauty norms.

Always! That is a dreadful word. It makes me shudder when I hear it. Women are so fond of using it. They spoil every romance by trying to make it last forever. It is a meaningless word, too. The only difference between a caprice and a life-long passion is that the caprice lasts a little longer.
