Brains of course.

With brains you can make money then make some plastic surgery and you will be beautiful.  

But a beauty without a brain won't be smart forever no matter how rich she is.  heheheheeh

Brain or beauty?

Be honest everyone, you all wish to own both brain and beauty together in one package, if you can choose. But, you actually can't (until you have some financial ability to use plastic surgery or whatever measures available these days to do that to your inborn look.

Fortunately, nature still loves balancing. So, some were born with brain rather than with beauty while others enjoy their beauty but with less brain. And the lucky own both. 

In real life, we see that brain or beauty is advantage for different reasons and occasions. When you look at beauty pageant contests, what you expect to see from the winner(please be honest to yourself). Again, when you meet your teacher, do you want to see that she has all the beauty but with no brain?

thank you for sharing your thoughts on the subject. indeed it has somehow spark your interest and taking time to answer it really entails thinking on how you would be able to explain or express your ideas in english. more exercises like these would help you in your use of the english language. i hope that you would continue to ask and answer thought provoking questions and enhance your english proficiency more.

as we know, looks can be deceiving, so don't be fooled and mislead by the looks. If you're going to ask me, ever since, i always go for brains, as they say. what beauty can do if the brain is empty? besides, with all the high technology we have, with the power of our brain and you can look for some ways to earn a lot of money, surgery will do. If you think, your partner is ugly, have it done with surgery Laughing . Kidding aside, if you're really looking for a lifetime partner, always go for the one who loves and accept you inside and out, there should not be any but's and if's in love.

I opt for so-called inner harmony in a person. That makes me feel comfortable with him/her.

marksimz, it's just a feeling inside me. as for me there are no universal criteria for people's evaluation. it's up to everyone to consider some person as a nice or not.

obviously brain, because beauty doesn't give you company for the whole life and brain will be there until your soul leave your body
