The famous Madame de Staël, who had all of the brains in the world but who wasn't very much to look at, once wrote a letter to a very pretty mental lightweight named Madame Récamier. 'I would gladly give one half of the wit with which I am credited, for one half of the beauty that you possess.' So then, are they mutually exclusive? Brains and beauty? Who knows. If you could only have one, which would a woman choose? Which do you think she really needs?
