It can be done, of course! But why use bare knuckles to batter down the Door of Success, when you might turn the knob and walk in? Making your own difficulties may be heroic, but it surely isn't sensible. A' good appearance unlocks opposition and allays prejudice. It opens the way to the favor of men and the hearts of women.
