Any relationship primarily built on physical attractiveness is predestined to be short lived.
Interpretation
What this quote means
A relationship based solely on physical looks is unlikely to last.
Zig Ziglar highlights the importance of deeper connections in relationships, suggesting that if a partnership is based merely on physical attractiveness, it lacks the foundation required for longevity. True fulfillment in relationships derives from mutual respect, emotional connection, and shared values rather than superficial qualities.
