Summary

This quote suggests that physical beauty in youth is largely based on genetics and external factors, while beauty later in life is a reflection of a person's inner qualities and character.

It emphasizes the importance of investing in personal growth and cultivating a beautiful soul, as it is this inner beauty that carries significance and endures with time.
