A fair exterior is a silent recommendation. [ Publius Syrus ]

One who preserves all the exterior decencies of ignorance. [ Samuel Foote ]

Yet under this rude exterior lies concealed a mighty genius. [ Horace ]

Accomplishments have taken virtue's place, and wisdom falls before exterior grace. [ Cowper ]

An ugly face and the want of exterior beauty generally increases the interior beauty. [ Chatfield ]

Many individuals have, like uncut diamonds, shining qualities beneath a rough exterior. [ Juvenal ]

The business of the biographer is often to pass slightly over those performances and incidents which produce vulgar greatness, to lead the thoughts into domestic privacies, and display the minute details of daily life, where exterior appendages are cast aside, and men excel each other only by prudence and virtue. [ Dr. Johnson ]
