VS Language--Appearance

Think not I am what I appear.
Lord Byron (1788-1824) British poet.

Be not deceived with the first appearance of things, for show is not substance.
English proverb

Appearances are deceptive.
Aesop (620 BC-560 BC) Greek fabulist.

Outside show is a poor substitute for inner worth.
Aesop (620 BC-560 BC) Greek fabulist.

The time will come when it will disgust you to look in the mirror.
Ovid (BC 43-AD 18) Roman poet.

It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.
Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) Irish poet and dramatist.
