“The kid was so handsome, he almost looked unreal.”

“He was so handsome,but he didn't look well.He reminded her of a cigarette.”

“Uriah looked better than he did an hour ago--he washed the blood from his mouth, and some of the color returned to his face. I'm struck, suddenly, by how handsome he is-- all his features are proportionate, his eyes dark and lively, his skin bronze-brown. And he has probably always been handsome. Only boys who have been handsome from a young age have that arrogance in their smile. Not like Tobias, who is almost shy when he smiles like he is surprised you bothered to look at him from the first place.”

“...he is handsome in the way you'd like your husband to be handsome. Someone you can look at for the rest of your life.”

“...if that handsome fellow were a cripple he wouldn't repel me, but he isn't a cripple, he is that handsome fellow, so he repels me...”

“He was so handsome, so beautiful. Inside and out.”
