This question is from a famous Canadian novel I always rather liked. Ten points to whoever picks it :D

I picked clever because being clever you can figure out how to be beautiful and good...............if you wanted to.

Well, much as I like being clever, I've always thought being good was more important. Beautifull... eh, whatever.

good as in 'ethically good', or just talented?

Aw darn... I saw the title of this thread and had my answer all ready ("Like Jesus." ;))... got in here and it turns out to be multiple choice. :p
Ah well... hmmm, which do I pick?
Eenie... Meenie... Miney... Mo....

Since I'm already beautiful AND clever, the only option is good. Good at what though? I'm already good at shameless self promotion, and really what else is there? So I'm going to refrain from voting.

well I always took it to mean ethically good... it never occured to me it could be anything else *sighs* my first poll is a failure already :cry:

Nobody picked Beautiful? All right, I'll pick it then. I'd much rather be beautiful than clever or good. Beauty comes in many forms and doesn't necessarily have to be the shallow kind....though I'd like to be beautiful in the shallow sense too. HEHE.

beauty is the most fickle of the three....so its probly the hardest to attain.....goodness is a relitive thing, hitler thought he was the good guy....clever, well u either got it, or you dont, and boys, i aint even close!!!.... there is a problem....what kind of good? what kind of beautiful? can i have a beautiful spirit, and a good body?

Well, picking good is the same as saying 'like jesus'. I mean, hey, if I could be 'good' and really BE 'good', then I'd be set man!
I already have beauty and wit. :)

Well i picked clever ...only because if i ever needed to do something bad and get away with it, I need those wits so I could do the unmentioned "bad thing" and still be "good" in the eyes of society
Beautiful? well im clever so i make a lot of money and have plastic surgery done

I picked clever for the same reason as Amelia :p
Now I must go take advantage of my boyfriend in his drunken state by interrogating him... the cleverness commences! :cool:

I had to go with Clever as well. I've said it many times, I'd rather be lucky than good anyday (obviously, I took it to mean talented rather than ethical), and beauty...hmz... eye of the beholder and all that crap.

I'm already clever, and 'good' is such a relative thing, so I chose beauty. Maybe someday, eh? :D

~wants ten points~
what ever you most want to be would be what you are most lacking in, so what i want to be is not clever, good, or beautiful......it is an all or none option, and humans all have to some degree, a share of all three. if i was human and had no lack in any of them, i would be "perfect" but only to me :D

my boss always says " you dont have to be clever if your good" and i suspect that applies to beauty as well, although, i dont know, being good also requires a fair amout of tact and carisma, which a fair face helps in bolth, so in being good you get all three?

heh, I had to pick "Clever".
I am far from beautiful, and don't think being beautiful counts for anything. Sure the beautiful people get the nicest seats in resturants, and all the nicest clothes fit them better. But I tend to get out of bed and go home when I am with them.
I am already good at the things I feel are important, but many people have pointed out to me that I am not "Good". Being good at things is different than I suspect the good choice is in this poll.
So, I am stuck with clever. And again, I feel I am already fairly clever, but you can never be too clever, so gimme some more of that.
