Knowledge may give weight, but accomplishments give lustre, and many more people see than weigh.
Herodotus
One shining quality lends a lustre to another, or hides some glaring defect.
William Hazlitt
When virtue and modesty enlighten her charms, the lustre of a beautiful woman is brighter than the stars of heaven, and the influence of her power it is in vain to resist.
Akhenaton
