Quote of the Day --- "Style"

"Do not conceive that fine clothes make fine men, any more than fine feathers make fine birds. A plain, genteel dress is more admired , obtains more credit in the eyes of the judious and the sensible."
--George Washington--

Simple thought in this quote, the clothes don't make the man. This day in age it can never be more true. But what struck me more is who said this quote. George Washington, the first president of this country. It is weird to me that he was making a comment of this nature back in the 1700s. When you think about it though, the world and its circumstances do not really change, just the people. What we are dealing with today is what people were dealing with back in the day, just in a little bit different capacity. Interesting.
