Character must be kept bright as well as clean.

Summary

Just like the way we regularly clean and take care of our physical appearance, we should also work on developing and refining our inner qualities and morals. It suggests that maintaining a good character, which encompasses virtues such as honesty, integrity, and kindness, is equally important as maintaining personal hygiene. Just as we strive to keep our outer appearances presentable, it is imperative to ensure our character shines brightly through our actions and choices.
