A Book's Cover

Never judge a book by its cover, typical sentence used by many whenever one's physical appearance is concerned. Does it apply to all?

As we all know, it takes time to know someone better, yet, the first impression usually determines the probability of continuing the befriending acts. Yes, we may find this insulting, but isn't that what most people been practicing after all these years? When we are in certain unfamiliar environments, we may approach those who seem more 'friendly' rather than the serious-looking type, though there might be the exceptional. And of course, changes might be made after a certain period of time spending with the newly made friends, hence narrow down the list and there we have it, the closer groups. Hate to admit it, but sometimes, judgements come first and understanding later. Even in book store, when we are looking at two different books, which happen to be the same title, same contents and story lines, we would still go for the eye-catching one. What's more?
