Beauty is aspirational - an ideal that mortals approach but seldom attain.
Perfection is an impossible destination
I'm pretty aware that the pursuit of perfection is, inherently, a flawed concept.

I mean, like most guys, you carry around this girl in your head, who is exactly who you want her to be. The person you think you will love the most. And every girl you are with gets measured against this girl in your head.

We're never going to have a perfect candidate unless Jesus Christ is on the ballot.
