I don't know whether this is the most flattering picture, but I liked it the best of all the ten zillion I took trying to get something I could bear. I think it speaks the most truth about me.

It's more something in your expression, not that you have to be as drop-dead gorgeous as John. It's the combination of animation and creativity with a kind of spiritual refinement.
