Eyebrows Quote by Victoria Coren Mitchell

“Nature made your eyebrows like that for a reason. I don't know the reason. Some people say it's to do with keeping rain out of monkeys' eyes. Whatever. The point is, if you try to redesign your eyebrows with tweezers and pens, it will look terrible.” quote by Victoria Coren Mitchell
