Handsome is as handsome does.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Man's goodness lies in his good deeds and not in the good looks.
The English proverb Handsome is as handsome does means that a person should be judged by his or her actions, not by appearance: only one who does good deeds is truly handsome. Option 1 says the same: goodness lies in good deeds, not in good looks.
