Beauty Tips by Audrey Hepburn

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it once a day.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone... People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.

If you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms.

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others.

Keep on dancing like nobody's looking!

When I first read these words of wisdom, I thought that it was atypical for a famous actress to have such a deep humility (it is possible but not probable, I think). Sure, things like old age and a drop in fame can bring famous people into a mood of reflection. Anyway, what is said is more important than who said it.

Nice tips, Gopa.

However, Snopes also reports that these might not be from Ms. Hepburn.
