Could you be so kind to check my sentences. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? "I try not to "judge a book by its cover" when I meet new people." Yes, I can say that is true for me. The first meeting may differ from the others. We never know what happened with person before we met. Even if a person has a dirty clothes we shouldn’t judge him or her. This person might have been in accident and didn’t have time to change clothes. As for cost of clothes, for me it doesn’t matter. From time to time I meet people who wear not expensive clothes but they have enough money. And the most important thing that a person’s appearance often has nothing to do with moral qualities. A person can be very attractive, wear famous brands, but there is nothing in person’s heart and soul. He or she might be a traitor, liar or something else. And vice versa. Yes, it’s true that handsome looks can draw attention, but only beauty of soul be able to hold it.

Yes, it’s true that (handsome) looks can draw attention, but only the beauty of one's soul is able to hold it.

I think you have a good range of vocabulary, and I like the way you presented your ideas in your text. One area for improvement is articles. Thanks for sharing your writing :)

If you want to see how I would write the same ideas with different words, you can look at this:
Yes, I think that statement holds true for me. The first time you meet someone, they can seem completely different than the person they really are. We never really know what happened in someone's life before we run into them, so it's pretty senseless to judge them. For example, maybe they had an accident and simply didn't have time to change their clothes. Regarding the cost of clothes, I can say that for me it doesn't matter at all. Sometimes I even run into rich people dressed like homeless people! Regardless, someone's appearance tells you very little about their moral qualities. More often than not, super attractive people who wear expensive designer brands may be trying to compensate for the lack of some other, deeper qualities. These people might be liars, gossips, or turn out to be terrible backstabbers.
While good looks can draw attention, only the beauty of one's soul can maintain and nourish that attention.
